Infill wall arrangements affect the failure mechanism and create localised damages. Such effects include increased axial forces on columns due to overturning, concentrated shear forces at the ends of beams and columns, and localised deformations in columns surrounded by discontinuous infills. In this study, we concerned the effects of openings, such as doors and windows in the infill walled reinforced concrete buildings on the failure mechanisms and collapse risk. Analytical models assembled in which the infill walls modelled with macro modelling approaches. OpenSEES software was used for modelling and comparison of the numerical models with experiments. Reliable and accurate infill wall model that simplifies modelling and decreases computational effort will be preferred. 3, 5 and 8 story frames were modelled. Bare frame results compared with fully infilled and infilled frames with openings. Failure mechanisms are investigated for different infill wall arrangements. Engineering demand parameters such as base shear capacities, inter-story and roof drift are investigated. Computed demands compared with the design parameters defined in TEC 2007 (Turkish Earthquake Code).

Effect of the surface roughness and construction material on wall slip in the flow of concentrated suspensions Gulmus, Sergul Acikalin; Yılmazer, Ülkü (Wiley, 2007-03-05) Recent studies on polyethylene, elastomers, and thermoplastics have revealed that the construction material and surface roughness are two important factors affecting wall slip. In this study, to determine the true rheological behavior of model concentrated suspensions, a multiple-gap separation method was used in a parallel disk rheometer. The model suspensions studied were poly (methyl methacrylate) particles with an average particle size of 121.2 mu m in hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene. The aim of this ...
Effect of AAC Infill Walls on Structural System Dynamics of a Concrete Building Çelik, Ozan Cem (2016-01-01) The effect of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) infill walls on the structural system dynamics of a two-story reinforced concrete building is investigated using its finite element structural model, which is calibrated to simulate the acceleration-frequency response curves from its forced vibration test. The model incorporating the AAC infill walls by equivalent diagonal struts captures the increase in lateral stiffness of the building and the torsional motions induced due to the asymmetrically placed AAC in...
Effect of introducing RC infill on seismic performance of damaged RC frames Turk, AM; Ersoy, U; Ozcebe, G (2006-07-30) The main objective of this study was to investigate the seismic behavior of damaged reinforced concrete frames rehabilitated by introducing cast in place reinforced concrete infills. Four bare and five infilled frames were constructed and tested. Each specimen consisted of two (twin) 1/3-scale, one-bay and two-story reinforced concrete frames. Test specimens were tested under reversed-cyclic lateral loading until considerable damage occurred. RC infills were then introduced to the damaged specimens. One bar...
Implications of Masonry Infill and Partition Damage in Performance Perception in Residential Buildings after a Moderate Earthquake Sucuoğlu, Haluk (SAGE Publications, 2013-05-01) Engineers usually focus on the performance of structural members, whereas the occupants of a residential building are affected mostly by the performance of infill and partition walls in buildings after a moderate earthquake. This often creates controversy and discussion regarding the post-earthquake use of buildings. Seismic rehabilitation codes for existing buildings offer sophisticated measures in rating the seismic performances of structural components, whereas performance measures suggested for infill a...
Effect of modifying bearing fixities on the seismic response of short- to medium-length bridges with heavy substructures Hindi, R; Dicleli, Murat (SAGE Publications, 2006-02-01) The effect of modifying the fixity conditions of the bearings on the seismic response and vulnerability of existing bridges with heavy substructures is studied. For this purpose, nonlinear seismic analysis of a typical bridge with heavy substructures is conducted to assess its seismic response and vulnerabilities. Next, the bearings are modified to obtain four different configurations of bearing fixities over the substructures. Nonlinear seismic analyses of the bridge are conducted to assess its seismic res...
