Project description

A regular, 1/2.5 scale three-story masonry infilled reinforced concrete frame structure was built and tested on a unidirectional shaking table. The structure was designed in compliance with EN1992-1-1:2004 and EN1998-1:2005 provisions as a moment-resisting frame by considering the medium ductility form of seismic construction detailing. Interacting masonry infill walls had door openings in the ground story walls and window openings in upper story walls. The 1979 Herceg Novi scaled record was used as seismic action in the longitudinal direction of the structure. The column behavior under reversals of combinations of shear and tensile or compressive forces was observed and identified as one of the potential risks of the building’s structural system.

In part of the winter semester two students worked on joint supervised special projects derived from the experimental results. The experiment, student stays in Croatia as well as some of the results are presented.
