Abstract
Structures with replaceable energy‐dissipating elements are attractive systems for improving building resilience. Damage in these structures is mainly limited to dissipating elements, which can be replaced after earthquakes. Among the energy‐dissipating elements, viscoelastic dampers (VEDs) can dissipate energy even under small deformations while providing stable fatigue performances, which benefits high‐rise buildings in resisting both wind and earthquake loadings. This paper presents the seismic design of an engineering practice of a 10‐story shear wall building with replaceable viscoelastic coupling beams. A new type of viscoelastic material that has negligible frequency dependency is adopted to provide stable constraint for the wall piers. The design details, including VEDs, nonreplaceable segment, and the detachable connection, are exemplified. The numerical model of the replaceable structure is established and analyzed under dynamic loadings. Results confirm that the implementation of replaceable viscoelastic coupling beams improves structural seismic performance. The plastic rotation at the end of the coupling beam is significantly reduced up to 41.4% compared with the traditional coupled shear wall structure.
期刊介绍:
The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings provides structural engineers and contractors with a detailed written presentation of innovative structural engineering and construction practices for tall and special buildings. It also presents applied research on new materials or analysis methods that can directly benefit structural engineers involved in the design of tall and special buildings. The editor''s policy is to maintain a reasonable balance between papers from design engineers and from research workers so that the Journal will be useful to both groups. The problems in this field and their solutions are international in character and require a knowledge of several traditional disciplines and the Journal will reflect this.
The main subject of the Journal is the structural design and construction of tall and special buildings. The basic definition of a tall building, in the context of the Journal audience, is a structure that is equal to or greater than 50 meters (165 feet) in height, or 14 stories or greater. A special building is one with unique architectural or structural characteristics.
However, manuscripts dealing with chimneys, water towers, silos, cooling towers, and pools will generally not be considered for review. The journal will present papers on new innovative structural systems, materials and methods of analysis.
