Seismic Behaviour of Buildings with Transfer Structures in Low-to- Moderate Seismicity Regions
Author: R.K.L. Su Department of Civil Engineering, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China | Size: 1.2 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Earthquake Engineering in the low and moderate seismic regions of Southeast Asia and Australia (2008) | Year: 2008
A literature review has been conducted aimed at improving the general understanding of the
seismic response of concrete buildings with transfer structures in low-to-moderate seismicity regions. This
paper summarizes and discusses the existing codified requirements for transfer structure design under seismic
conditions. Based on the previous shaking table test results and numerical findings, the seismic effects on the
inelastic behaviours of transfer structures are investigated. The mechanisms for the formation of a soft storey
below transfer floors, the abrupt change in inter-storey drift near transfer storeys and shear concentration due
to local deformation of transfer structures are developed. Design principles have been established for controlling
soft-storey type failure and minimizing shear concentration in exterior walls supported by transfer structures.
The influence of the vertical positioning of transfer floors on the seismic response of buildings has also
been reviewed.

Design Guidelines for Connections of Precast Structures under Seismic Actions Third Main Title Line Th
Author: 20 12 Paolo Negro and Giandomenico Toniolo Editors Paolo Negro and Giandomenico Toniolo | Size: 1.4 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: | Year: 84 | pages: 2012
This document has been drafted within Work-Package WP6, “Derivation of design rules” of the
SAFECAST Project (FP7-SME-2007-2 Programme - Grant agreement n. 218417, 2009).
The SAFECAST project (Performance of Innovative Mechanical Connections in Precast Building
Structures under Seismic Conditions) is a comprehensive research and development action performed by
a group of European associations of precast element producers and industrial partners with the assistance
of a group of RTD providers.
The industrial partners were: ASSOBETON, National Italian Association of Precast Concrete Producers,
Milan, Italy, represented by Dr. Antonella Colombo; ANDECE, Asociación Nacional de Prefabricados y
Derivados del Cemento, Madrid, represented by Dr. Alejandro López Vidal; ANIPB, National Portuguese
Association of Precast Concrete Producers, represented by Ms. Marcia Gonçalves; SEVIPS, Association
of Greek Concrete Precast Industries, represented by Prof. Spyridion Tsoukantas; TPCA, Turkish Precast
Concrete Association, Ankara, represented by Mr. Bulent Tokman; Labor srl, Rome, represented by Mr.
Paolo De Stefanis; DLC srl, Milan, represented by Mr. Alberto Dal Lago; Prelosar, Logroño, Spain,
represented by Mr. José Antonio Alba Irurzun; LU.GE.A Spa, Rome, represented by Mr. Fabio Ciaroni;
Halfen GmbH, Langenfeld, Germany, represented by Mr. Stefano Terletti.
Dr. Antonella Colombo served as the coordinator of the SAFECAST project.
The RTD providers were: ELSA Laboratory, Institute for the Protection and Security of the Citizen, Joint
Research Centre of the European Commission, represented by Dr. Paolo Negro; Politecnico di Milano,
represented by Prof. Giandomenico Toniolo; National Technical University of Athens, represented by Prof.
Ioannis Psycharis; Istanbul Technical University, represented by Prof. Faruk Karadogan; Laboratorio
Nacional de Engenharia Civil, Lisboa, represented by Dr. Ema Coelho; University of Ljubljana,
represented by Prof. Matej Fishinger.
Dr. Paolo Negro and Prof. Giandomenico Toniolo were charged with the technical management of the
SAFECAST project and Prof. Toniolo was the Work-Package leader for the Work-Package WP6
“Derivation of design rules”, of which this document represents the final outcome.
The guidelines given in the following clauses have a theoretical derivation supported by the experimental
results of the testing campaigns performed within the Work-Packages WP2, “Experimental activity on new
and existing connections” and WP4, “Experimental assessment on real structures” as well as by the
numerical simulations performed within Work Package WP3, “Development of analytical models” and
WP5, “Numerical model validation”. General know-how on production practice and international literature
on the subject have been also considered.

Shake table tests of under-designed RC frames for the seismic retrofit of buildings – design and similitude requirements of the benchmark specimen
Author: P. Quintana-Gallo, S. Pampanin, & A.J. Carr ; P. Bonelli | Size: 2.8 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: 2010 NZSEE Conference | Year: 2010 | pages: 12
In the past years, extensive experimental work on innovative feasible retrofit solutions has been carried out at the University of Canterbury, as part of the FRST Project ‘Seismic Retrofit Solutions for NZ Multi-storey Buildings’. The experiments have consisted in quasi-static test of 2/3 scale beam column joint subassemblies representative of pre-70’s reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings, referred herein as under-designed structures (non-ductile detailing, no capacity design principles), before and after retrofit.
As a dynamic validation of the seismic vulnerability of such structures and the feasibility of the developed and improved retrofit solutions, a series of 4 1/2.5 scale experimental models (two 3 storey - 2 bay frames jointed together by transverse beams and floor slabs) will be tested on the shake table, without and with a seismic retrofit intervention and without and with infill panels. The retrofit interventions will include techniques such as the Metallic Haunch, FRP layers, and Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) braces, targeting for two different performance levels: Life Safety and Damage Control. In this paper, the overall description of the dynamic tests, the development of the experimental models and the similitude requirements are described.
