Abstrait:

In practice, reinforced concrete (RC) infilled frames having longer span are provided with tie columns to improve structural integrity but previous work ignored tie columns in studying the effect of masonry infills on progressive collapse resistance of RC frames. Therefore, aim of this study is to explore the effect of tie columns on the progressive collapse resistance of RC infilled frames under column removal scenarios. The high-fidelity-based finite element model of RC infilled frames were first developed and validated with published experimental results. The validated model was then further evolved to an RC infilled frame having tie columns to evaluate the influence of tie columns on the load transfer mechanism and the resistance of the RC infilled frame against progressive collapse. Thereafter, the numerical model was further utilized to study the effects of the pertinent parameters, including the number of stories, the span length of the frame and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio of the tie columns. Finally, equivalent strut model was suggested for macro-modeling of RC infilled frames having tie columns in engineering practice. The results showed that incorporating tie columns makes truss mechanism more fully mobilized in masonry infill walls and the inclined angles of primary struts in each sub-panel of the infill wall are increased, improving the vertical components of diagonal compression in resisting the gravity load. Consequently, introducing tie columns at middle span of infill wall panels helped to increase the initial stiffness (about 19%), peak resistance (about 26%) and post-peak resistance of RC infilled frame under a middle column removal scenario. Such beneficial effect of tie columns becomes more significant for infilled frames with larger spans, and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio of tie columns should be ≤ 0.24%.
