Seismic behavior of autoclaved aerated concrete low rise buildings with reinforced wall panels
Gökmen, Furkan; Binici, Barış; Canbay, Erdem (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-07-01)
Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) wall panels are more commonly used to construct load-bearing walls in low-rise prefabricated buildings located in seismic zones. In the scope of this study, the seismic response of buildings constructed with reinforced AAC wall panels was investigated. To this end, an in situ test was conducted on a two-story test building under reversed cyclic displacement excursions. It was determined that the test building could carry a lateral load of 60% more than its weight...
Seismic behavior of semi-precast concrete shear walls
Karimi Zindashti, Golnesa; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2016)
Successful performance of well-designed and constructed precast concrete elements in earthquake resistant structures, has led to widespread use of these kind of elements all around the world. Fast construction, high quality of precast concrete units and high durability are just a few advantages of these elements to be favored over cast-in-situ structures by engineers, and thus to cause seeking the ways to minimize their disadvantages. The main disadvantage of precast concrete elements in construction is the...
Seismic behavior of semi-precast concrete shear walls
Golnesa Karimi, Zindashti; Binici, Barış; Canbay, Erdem (null; 2017-10-11)
Successful seismic performance of well-designed and constructed precast concrete members is crucial for sustainable, economical and high speed construction. The main disadvantage of precast concrete is the difficulty of detailing the connection region between the vertical and horizontal load bearing elements to ensure structural integrity. Double wall system, being a semi-precast approach, consists of two precast reinforced concrete layers encasing a cast-in-place concrete layer which is usually employed to...

Vertical reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) panel systems are among attractive alternatives for low‐rise buildings. The popularity of AAC panels in building construction is increasing due to their unique material properties, such as being light weight, good insulator, fire resistant combined with having high speed of erection and ease of quality control. However, past experimental evidence on the seismic response of reinforced vertical panels is rather limited with few tests on multi‐panel specime...
Seismic behavior of autoclaved aerated concrete reinforced vertical panel buildings
Gökmen, Furkan; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2017)
In this study, the seismic behavior of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) reinforced panel walls and buildings was investigated. The structural members were investigated under cyclic lateral loading and axial load and the results were compared with the previous tests. The main objective of this study was to provide recommendations for nonlinear analysis of the reinforced AAC panel walls and buildings. OpenSees plat-form was chosen as the computational platform. The walls were modeled with fiber sections. The...
