Seismic tests of post-tensioned self-centering building frames with column and slab restraints

Abstract: Post-tensioned (PT) self-centering moment frames have been developed as an alternative to typical moment-resisting frames (MRFs) for earthquake resistance. When a PT frame deforms laterally, gaps between the beams and columns open. However, the gaps are constrained by the columns and the slab in a real PT selfcentering building frame. This paper presents a methodology for evaluating the column restraint and beam compression force based on the column deformation and gap openings at all stories. The method is ve… Show more

“…In addition, the loads caused by dynamic effects such as earthquakes could lead to failure [14][15][16]. Structures are more vulnerable to dynamic loads than they are to static loads [17][18][19]. A way to improve the performance of structures against dynamic loads is to add damping to the structure [20].…”
