Infill walls are widely used as formation, isolation and separation of closed spaces in reinforced concrete (RC) buildings. Although they are passive members under gravity loads, they contribute to the structural response in case of lateral loading. Majority of the past research regarding seismic response of infilled frames is limited to in-plane contribution of infill walls to the structural response. Aiming identification of in-plane (IP) versus out-of-plane (OOP) interaction of infilled RC frames, an extensive test campaign has been conducted. In addition to displacement based reversed cyclic IP loading, airbag induced OOP loading and simultaneous biaxial loading has been exerted on half scale, single RC frames infilled with traditional masonry as well as masonry strengthened with new techniques. Force-displacement responses, performances and distribution of damages under increasing displacements at IP and OOP directions were tracked and biaxial coupling of wall response was identified. It is observed that IP capacity decreased drastically in the presence of OOP loading which should be accounted during estimation of infilled frame performance. © 2018 Czech Technical University in Prague.

Strengthening of brick infilled rc frames with cfrp reinforcement-general principles Akın, Emre; Özcebe, Güney; Department of Civil Engineering (2011) There is an excessive demand for the rehabilitation of frame type reinforced concrete (RC) buildings which do not satisfy current earthquake code provisions. Therefore, it is imperative to develop user-friendly seismic strengthening methodologies which do not necessitate the evacuation of building during rehabilitation period. In this study, it was aimed to strengthen the brick infill walls by means of diagonal Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) fabrics and to integrate them with the existing structural...
Vulnerability assessment of reinforced concrete moment resisting frame buildings Erduran, Emrah; Yakut, Ahmet (2007-04-01) A detailed seismic performance assessment procedure has been developed for reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with masonry infill walls. The procedure is based on member damage functions, in terms of interstory drift ratios. These functions are developed for the primary components, namely, columns, beams, and infill walls. For developing these functions, analytical investigations to determine the influence of several parameters on the damageability of components were combined with experimental data. A...
Seismic upgrading of reinforced concrete frames with structural steel elements Özçelik, Ramazan; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2011) This thesis examines the seismic internal retrofitting of existing deficient reinforced concrete (RC) structures by using structural steel members. Both experimental and numerical studies were performed. The strengthening methods utilized with the scope of this work are chevron braces, internal steel frames (ISFs), X-braces and column with shear plate. For this purpose, thirteen strengthened and two as built reference one bay one story portal frame specimens having 1/3 scales were tested under constant grav...
Strengthening of deficient RC frames with high strength concrete panels: an experimental study BARAN, MEHMET; Susoy, Melih; Tankut, Tugrul (2011-01-25) An economic, structurally effective and practically applicable strengthening technique was developed for reinforced concrete (RC) framed buildings. The idea of the technique is to convert the existing hollow brick infill wall into a load carrying system acting as a cast-in-place RC infill wall by bonding relatively thin high strength precast concrete PC panels to the plastered hollow brick infill. For this purpose, a total of eight one-third scale, one bay, one story frames were tested under reversed-cyclic...
Bond of LAP-spliced bars in self-compacting concrete Ghasabeh, Mehran; Canbay, Erdem; Department of Civil Engineering (2013) Self-compacting concrete is an innovative construction material; its priority to normal vibrated concrete is that there is not any vibration requirement. Bond strength of reinforcement is one of the key factors that ensures the usefulness of any reinforced concrete structure. In this study, 6 full-scale concrete beams spliced at the mid-span were tested under two-point symmetrical loading. Test variables were bottom cover, side cover, free spacing between longitudinal reinforcement, lap-splice length and pr...
