The Analysis of Non-Linear Seismic Response of an Infilled Frame Structure in Yingxiu Town – The Heavy Disaster Areas of Wenchuan 8.0 Earthquake

Abstract:

On 12 May 2008, a magnitude 8.0 earthquake happened in Wenchuan, China .It was the most serious earthquake in china since 1949, causing very huge casualties and engineering damages. The complex building of the Xuankou secondary school in Yingxiu town was designed by the Code for Seismic Design of Buildings of China (GB50011-2001), the seismic fortification intensity of the buildings was 7 degree. In the earthquake, it was destroyed most seriously, and the engineering damage was characteristic. In the paper, the property of material nonlinearity was considered ,the nonlinear analysis model of infilled frame structure was established, the time history analysis and nonlinear static analysis were used during inelastic stage, the main cause of structural destruction was obtained, the influence of the infill wall on the structure was discussed.Therefore ,the results can provide valuable reference for the seismic design of infilled frame structure.
