Book cover Concrete Structures in Earthquake

Abstract

Two real scale five-storey reinforced concrete frame buildings were tested in BRI in order to evaluate damage of reinforced concrete structural members such as beams, columns, and walls for strength-based design buildings. A series of experimental works show that secondary RC walls could have improved seismic performance for damage reduction by changing configuration and rebar arrangement.
