Corrosion related deterioration of reinforced concrete buildings is often studied by the structural engineering community. The literature reveals the fact that modelling of deteriorated members requires a unique consideration due to brittle section behaviour. The late adaptation of seismic regulation rules and lack of decent quality construction material supply results a vulnerable building category in the island of Cyprus. This paper examines the vulnerable building category by combining concrete strength variation with different corrosion levels. A common building type representing 1980's was selected for analyses. By using the experimental data on local materials, the corrosion rate and concrete strength specific models were generated. The analyses on brittle low strength deteriorated models yielded to a reduction both in strength and ductility. The effects of considering different concrete strength on non-seismically designed deteriorated buildings were discussed herein.

Seismic behavior of double walls with continuity reinforcement
Binici, Barış; Canbay, Erdem (null; 2015-07-21)
The conventional precast construction has deficiencies especially related to its connections between structural elements. Hence, its use in earthquake zones has been limited. However, the seismic performance of these systems can be improved by a semi-precast system, namely the double wall system. In this structural system, both precast and cast-in-situ concrete elements are utilized during the construction period, i.e. precast concrete shells are benefitted as a formwork to place cast-in-situ concrete. In t...
Seismic vulnerability, behavior and design of tunnel form building structures
Balkaya, C; Kalkan, E (Elsevier BV, 2004-12-01)
Multi-story reinforced concrete tunnel form buildings are one of the common structural types in regions prone to high seismic risk due to the buildings inherent earthquake resistance and ease of construction. Despite their good performance during earthquakes in 1999 in Turkey, and abundance of such structures scattered worldwide, current seismic codes and design provisions provide insufficient guidelines for their seismic design. As a compensatory measure, a series of modal and nonlinear static analyses are...
Seismic retrofit of buildings with backbone dampers
Shaban, Nefize; Ozdemir, Seda; Caner, Alp; Akyüz, Uğurhan (2017-01-01)
Dampers have been effectively used in new designs and seismic retrofit of old structures in many parts of the world. The common seismic retrofit practice in Turkey is almost purely based on stiffening the structure with additional shear walls or adding braces to limit the excessive seismic drifts. Such an approach usually results in expensive interior works and enlargements of foundations. The stiffening of the structure typically results in attracting more seismic force. Utilization of dampers as seismic p...
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...
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...
