The present invention relates to the technical field of anti-seismic building structures, and more particularly, to a function-recovering energy-dissipating reinforced concrete shear wall and a construction method thereof.
In modern concrete structural engineering, a reinforced concrete shear wall is a primary element of a seismic force resisting system that is designed to resist seismic loads. Its bearing capacity and seismic performance are crucial for ensuring the safety of high-rise buildings. Presently, the basic principle of designing the seismic structure of high-rise buildings in China is to keep buildings undamaged in small earthquakes, make buildings repairable after moderate earthquakes, and prevent buildings from collapsing in violent earthquakes. Under the strong earthquake action, the reinforced concrete shear wall functions to dissipate the seismic energy mainly through an elastic-plastic deformation. As a consequence, different degrees of damage and large residual deformation can occur to the concrete shear wall, resulting in its difficult recovery and loss of function. In such circumstances, the concrete shear wall needs to be demolished and rebuilt. In the prior art, in order to reduce the residual deformation and achieve a quick function recovery, seismic structures such as a self-recovering shear wall and a swing shear wall have been proposed and designed both in domestic and abroad in recent years. By arranging high-strength steel bars or steel strands in the shear walls, the strength, the safety margin and the deformability of the shear wall structures can be greatly improved. Thus, even under the action of strong earthquake, the elastic performance can be kept, the post-earthquake residual deformation can be reduced, and a quick function recovery can be achieved.
However, although high-strength steel bars or steel strands ensure the elastic performance of the shear walls, and allow them to quickly recover during strong earthquake, a severe structural deformation is unavoidable and the energy-dissipating capacity is seriously insufficient.
In conclusion, the shortcomings of traditional shear walls are urgent problems that need to be solved for those skilled in this field.
The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings in the prior art by providing a function-recovering energy-dissipating reinforced concrete shear wall. For the dampers arranged in the wall body possess a high energy-dissipating capacity, the seismic performance of the structure can be greatly improved during the earthquake, and a quick post-earthquake function-recovery can be achieved. The present invention also provides a simple and reliable construction method of the function-recovering energy-dissipating reinforced concrete shear wall.

As shown in
A construction method of the function-recovering energy-dissipating reinforced concrete shear wall of the present invention, comprising the steps of:
Step 1: preparing a front reinforcement fabric and a rear reinforcement fabric that are formed by high-strength reinforcing materials distributed in vertical direction and common steel bars, wherein the common steel bars distributed in vertical direction and the common steel bars distributed in horizontal direction are connected in a colligation mode;

Step 4: installing the dampers and the rhombic connecting rod protective shell, placing the metal corrugated tubes to corresponding installation positions, fixing them on the reinforcement fabrics, and inserting steel strand into each metal corrugated tube; subsequently, placing the pre-connected dampers to corresponding installation positions between the front and rear reinforcement fabrics from the top of the reinforcement fabrics, and connecting the steel strands with the piston rods of the dampers; finally, installing a framework and a framework support outside the reinforcement fabrics, and fixing the dampers and the rhombic connecting rod protective shell to the framework support;
Step 5: pouring concrete; subsequently, simultaneously stretch-drawing and anchoring the four steel strands at the four corners of the wall body after the poured concrete reaches the design strength.
The operating principle of the present invention is the following:
Under the action of seismic loads, an interlayer relative displacement of the shear wall structure can be caused. The points A and B at the left and right ends of the upper part of the shear wall body are displaced relative to the points C and D at the lower part of the shear wall body. When the distance between the points A and C are lengthened (at the moment, the distance between the points B and D is shortened), for a prestressing force is imposed on steel strands 5, and the points A and C are connected to the points B and D through a flexible system composed of steel strands 5, damper pistons 32, cylindrical piston rods 31 having a hinge hole at the end portion, movable hinges 1 and steel plate connecting rods, the damper pistons 32 of the dampers a and c are far from each other under the action of the tensile force of the steel strands, and are displaced relative to the cylinder barrels 35 of the dampers a and c. Simultaneously, the lower left and upper right ends of the rhombic steel plate connecting rod 2 are lengthened, and the upper left and lower right ends of the rhombic steel plate connecting rod 2 are shortened. The damper pistons 32 of the dampers b and d approach each other under the action of the tensile force of the rhombic steel plate connecting rod 2, and are displaced relative to the cylinder barrels of the dampers b and d. When there's relative displacement between the pistons and cylinder barrels of the dampers, the shear wall body functions to resist the seismic loads. Thus, the seismic energy introduced to the building structure can be effectively dissipated, the dynamic response of the structure under the action of seismic loads can be significantly weakened, and the seismic performance of the building structure can be greatly enhanced. It's the same when the distance between the points B and D are lengthened (at the moment, the distance between the points A and C are shortened).
Further, for the high-strength reinforcing materials 22 arranged at the left and right sides of the reinforced concrete shear wall body possess a high tensile strength and a low elastic modulus, the structure can be always kept in an elastic working state. Thus, once the earthquake is over, the high-strength reinforcing materials can quickly pull the reinforced concrete shear wall body back to its original position. At the moment, the residual deformation is small, enabling the structure to quickly recover its function.
