OBJECTIVES • Develop new system based on experimental and analytical studies • Develop seismic design/analysis guidelines and tools, and recommendations for application
OUTLINE • Steel Coupling Beams • Experimental program • Analytical model and verification • Precast Coupling Beams • Advantages • Parametric studies (DRAIN-2DX) • Design approach
STEEL BEAM TESTS • Eleven half-scale coupled wall subassemblages (angle, beam, post-tensioning properties) Elevation View (half-scale) test wall region L4x8x5/8 and reaction fixture • Objectives • Investigate M-q behavior • Verify analy. models • Verify design tools and procedures load block W10x68 PT strand strong floor lw=1.5 m lb=1.5 m (5 ft) lw=1.5 m ap=140 mm2 (0.217 in2) fpi=0.6fpu

VERIFICATION OF MODEL applied shear force, kips (kN) 60 (267) measured predicted 0 (-267) -60 -10 10 0 beam chord rotation, %
POST-TENSIONED COUPLED WALLS • Unbonded post-tensioning is a promising and feasible method to couple concrete walls (up to 60-65 percent coupling) • Large self-centering, considerable energy dissipation • Large deformations with little damage • The analytical models and design tools/procedures work well • Shift focus towards precast beams
PRECAST ADVANTAGES • Simpler beam-to-wall joints • Central location of PT strands • Fire and environmental protection • Higher friction resistance against shear sliding • Favorable tolerances for construction • Cost-efficient
PARAMETRIC STUDY DRAIN-2DX(Half-Scale Subassemblages) • Varied Parameters: • beam depth • amount of PT • angle size • gage length • aspect ratio
