RCM-2005 Seismic Resistance of RC-framedMasonry WallSystem Osamu JOH Professor, Dr of Eng. Graduate School of Engineering Hokkaido University Turkey Seismic Resistance of RC-framed Masonry Wall System
Objective and Method • Objective: • To clarify seismic behaviors of RC-framed (=confined) masonry wall structures in consideration of many effective factors on the behaviors by experiment and analysis. • To propose easy rehabilitation method for the structures. • Method: • (1) Seismic loading tests of half scaled specimens with many test variables (opening configuration, types of blocks and joint, etc.) • (2) Numerical simulation using rigid body spring method. • (3) Experiment for the masonry wall structures strengthened by reasonable techniques (wire-mesh, new materials, etc.) Seismic Resistance of RC-framed Masonry Wall System

Future investigations-1 Extension of the experiment Consideration of effective factors on seismic performance 1) Configuration of overall structures number of story number of span 2) Three dimensional effect transverse structure transverse lateral loading 3) Properties of blocks and joint configuration, size,strength piling way of blocks, etc. Seismic Resistance of RC-framed Masonry Wall System
Future investigations-2 Analytical investigation 1) Development of analytical model using “rigid body spring method” in order to apply to three different elements: RC-members, blocks and joints. 2) Numerical analysis considering several variables in order to extend the range of test results. effect of combination loads, configuration of walls, strength of material, etc. rigid body spring method Seismic Resistance of RC-framed Masonry Wall System
Future investigations-3 Rehabilitation investigation Development of easy and reasonable strengthening methods for this structure by seismic loading tests. Methods are, for example, covering with wire mesh, jacketing with new material, partial protecting at wall corners, etc. Example of strengthening effects for RC wall-frame structure Seismic Resistance of RC-framed Masonry Wall System
