A novel multi-story prefabricated shear wall structure was investigated, in which reinforcement anchor rings or steel wire rope sleeve was used for the vertical joint connection, while the vertical rebar was connected by noncontact lapping using a single row of larger diameter rebar. To investigate the feasibility and the seismic behavior of the wall, quasi-static experiments were conducted on a total of eight prefabricated shear wall specimens and one cast-in-situ shear wall, and the failure mode, full-range behavior and influence pattern of key parameters were analyzed. The results show t

In view of the problems existed in the seismic strengthening and reconstruction project of an existing reinforced concrete frame structure, a method using attached prefabricated self-centering members to strengthen the reinforced concrete frames is proposed. That is, the existing frame beams and columns are strengthened by enlarging section method, and prefabricated beam members are installed side by side along the frame beams. Unbonded prestressed tendons are installed throughout the length of the prefabricated beams and anchored to the outer side of the frame columns. Energy dissipating s

The method of strengthening RC columns with steel tube and sandwiched concrete jackets takes advantage of the excellent mechanical characteristics of concrete-filled steel tubes, and has the advantages of high material utilization rate, minimal increase in section dimensions and easy for construction. However, there is no widely recognized or applicable calculation methods for the load capacity of the strengthened columns, which restricts the applications of this strengthening technology. Therefore, a unified model for calculating the axial load capacity of the strengthened RC columns were

In order to investigate the seismic performance of low ductility RC columns strengthened with textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) composites, low-cycle reversed loading tests were carried out on six column specimens strengthened with TRC and two control column specimens without TRC. The effects of the textile reinforced layers, shear span ratio, axial compression ratio and stirrup ratio on the seismic failure modes of RC columns were studied. The effects of TRC strengthening on the bearing capacity, deformation behavior, load-displacement curve and energy dissipation capacity of low ductility

At present, for the design of the cable-net-stiffened air-supported membrane structures, the model is usually simplified so that the cable-net and the membrane surface are directly connected, ignoring the friction and slip at the surface. This simplification has caused great hidden risks for the design safety of the membrane structures. Therefore, using the ANSYS software, the frictional slip between the cable and membrane of the air-supported membrane structure was considered as a contact problem. A contact model was established, and the initial shape analysis and the analysis on wind load
