Etructural Performance Evaluation of Columns in a Reinforced Concrete Ordinary Moment Frame Building

철근콘크리트 보통모멘트조건물의 기두에 대한 구조성능 평가

The purpose of this study is to investigate the structural performance of columns in an Reinforced Concrete Ordinary Moment Frame building. For this purpose, a 3-story building was designed according to the Korea seismic design provisons and ACI 318-99, and the columns of in the first story were constructed. The columns were classified into interior and columns. For each interior and exterior columns, upper and lower parts ate modeled by the 2/3 scale experimental specimens. The specimens for lower part columns have lap splice. The interior columns were tested under the constant axial force, while the exterior columns were tested under the fluctuating axial force. Based on the results of the experiments, the effects of the lap splice and axial force on the column performance are evaluated.
