Truss Analysis for Evaluating the Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Moment-Resisting Frames with Poorly Reinforcing Details

摘要

The target of the research in this paper is using truss analysis to predict the behavior of reinforced concrete moment-resisting frames, especially for the joints with poorly reinforcing details. The truss analysis is basically constructed by truss mechanism for a cracked RC frame. Parametric study for discussing concrete softened coefficients and joint shear degradation is included in this research. Furthermore, the truss model was verified by tested RC moment-resisting frames with different failure modes.
