2 Research Objective Establish the seismic performance of modern reinforced concrete walls and develop the response and damage-prediction models required to advance performancebased design of these systems Photo courtesy of MKA Seattle

3 Research Activities to Date Experimental testing: Testing of four planar walls completed in 2008 Testing of a planar coupled wall completed Jan Testing of three c shaped walls to be completed dby April 2012 Simulation: development, calibration and evaluation of Elastic, effective stiffness models Fiber type beam column models w/ and w/o flexure shear interaction Two and three dimensional continuum models Performance prediction models: Development of data relating damage and demand Development of fragility functions for walls

4 Experimental Test Program Prototype structure Experimental test matrix Core Wall under Construction (Courtesy of MKA, Seattle)

5 Experimental Testing of a Coupled Wall

6 Objective: To investigate the seismic behavior of a modern coupled wall Background Numerous tests of coupling beams with different reinforcement layouts, ratios and confinement details. Only seven (7) coupled wall tests found in the literature. Previously tested coupled wall test specimens are not representative of current design practices. Specimen Design Review inventory of modern coupled walled buildings to establish typical configuration and design details (17 buildings with coupled core wall systems designed for construction in CA or WA in last 10 years). Basic geometry and strength th is consistent twith planar walls tested t as part of the project. Design coupled walls following the recommendations of the IBC Seismic Design Manual Vol. III, using ASCE 7 05, and meeting requirements of ACI The progression of yielding and failure mechanism for the initial design was evaluated via continuum finite element analysis using VecTor2. The initial design was revised (increased coupling beam flexibility and wall long. reinforcement ratio) to ensure yielding of coupling beams and wall piers.
