Abstract:

The seismic behavior of steel reinforced ultra-high strength concrete (SRUHSC) composite frame was investigated through finite element analysis (FEA) modeling. A FEA model for the seismic analysis of the SRUHSC frame was first established and verified with test results. The numerical model was subsequently used to study the seismic performance of the SRUHSC frame, including the P-Δ skeleton curves, the stiffness degradation, the failure mode, the subsequence mechanisms of plastic hinges and the stress–strain distribution. Finally, a parametric study was carried out to investigate the effect of salient parameters on the behavior of the SRUHSC frame. It was found that with the increment of the concrete strength, yield strength of steel, and linear stiffness ratio of beam to column, the horizontal load-bearing capacity and the elastic stiffness of the structure were improved, but there was no significant effect on the ductility. With the increment of the volume stirrup ratio and structural steel ratio, the horizontal load-bearing capacity and the ductility of the structure were both improved. However, with the increment of the axial-load ratio, there was no obvious change in the elastic stiffness of the structure, but the horizontal load bearing capacity and the ductility of the structure decreased obviously. In addition, the accuracy of a concrete constitutive model in the different degrees of constraint for the SRUHSC frame proposed by the authors was verified with the FEA model.
