Abstract
Precast reinforced concrete (RC) frames have been rapidly developed in structural engineering due to their various advantages, such as high efficiency and low environmental pollution. However, the construction quality of precast RC frames is difficult to guarantee, and the interface of new and old concrete and the bond-slip effects of additional steel bars may lead to different performance levels of precast RC frames. Therefore, it is necessary and important to investigate and assess the seismic performance of precast RC frames that adopt the conformation of Chinese code. In this paper, a numerical simulation method for precast RC frames is developed based on OpenSEES software, in which the Joint2D element is used to simulate the beam-to-column connections to consider the shear and bond-slip effects. Two prototype structures of precast RC frames are designed, and the nonlinear time history analysis is performed to explore the seismic performance of the precast RC frames according to the Chinese code. Meanwhile, the incremental dynamic analysis and fragility analysis are conducted to study the differences in seismic performance and collapse resistance between precast RC frames and cast-in-situ RC frames.
期刊介绍：
The Earthquakes and Structures, An International Journal, focuses on the effects of earthquakes on civil engineering structures. The journal will serve as a powerful repository of technical information and will provide a highimpact publication platform for the global community of researchers in the traditional, as well as emerging, subdisciplines of the broader earthquake engineering field. Specifically, some of the major topics covered by the Journal include: .. characterization of strong ground motions, .. quantification of earthquake demand and structural capacity, .. design of earthquake resistant structures and foundations, .. experimental and computational methods, .. seismic regulations and building codes, .. seismic hazard assessment, .. seismic risk mitigation, .. site effects and soil-structure interaction, .. assessment, repair and strengthening of existing structures, including historic structures and monuments, and .. emerging technologies including passive control technologies, structural monitoring systems, and cyberinfrastructure tools for seismic data management, experimental applications, early warning and response
