[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

It can be applied to prefabricated buildings, effectively enhance the energy dissipation capacity of the joint structure, reduce the damage and destruction of the structure under seismic action, and can automatically reset.

[0032] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] This embodiment provides a prefabricated concrete self-resetting energy-dissipating column base joint structure, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the structure includes: a precast concrete column 1, a precast concrete foundation 2, unbonded prestressing tendons 6, and multiple energy dissipation components. One end of the unbonded prestressing tendon 6 is anchored to the precast concrete foundation 2 by an anchor 9, and the other end passes through the concrete column and is anchored to the top of the precast concrete column 1 by the anchor 9. The energy dissipation components are detachably fixed at one end of the precast concrete column 1 near the precast concrete foundation 2. By setting the energy dissipation components, the plastic behavior under seismic action is concentrated in the energy dissipation components, and the energy dissipation components can be disassembled and replaced, improving the post-earthquake repair capability and making repair convenient and efficient. By controlling the damage sequence, the seismic toughness requirements under multiple seismic levels are met. In addition, by using the unbonded prestressing tendons 6 and anchoring both ends of the unbonded prestressing tendons 6 to the precast concrete column 1 and the precast concrete foundation 2 respectively, the unbonded prestressing tendons 6 can achieve automatic reset, reducing the residual displacement of the structure under earthquakes and improving the seismic performance of the column base joint. Meanwhile, the reset component can slip relative to the precast concrete column 1 and the precast concrete foundation 2, and has good energy dissipation capacity; all components can be prefabricated in the factory, and only need to be assembled and prestressed on site, reducing labor costs and environmental pollution, which is in line with the development concept of green, environmentally friendly, efficient and energy-saving prefabricated buildings.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the precast concrete column 1 includes an upper column and a lower column 10. The upper column and the lower column 10 are integrally formed and the upper column is located above the lower column 10. The center lines of the upper column and the lower column 10 coincide. The top of the precast concrete foundation 2 is provided with a mortise 11, and the lower column 10 extends into the mortise 11. The area of ​​the lower column 10 is similar to confined concrete, so even if the axial compression of the column is relatively large, no damage will occur.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, a gap is provided between the mortise 11 and the lower column 10 to facilitate construction and assembly.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, it further includes an energy-consuming component fixing member, which is embedded at one end of the upper column near the lower column 10, and each energy-consuming component is detachably fixed to the energy-consuming component fixing member.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the energy-consuming component fixing component includes a base plate 3 and multiple side frame shells 5. A first through hole 12 is provided in the middle of the base plate 3 for passing through the lower column 10. Each side frame shell 5 is welded and fixed to the outer side of the base plate 3. The base plate 3 is located between the upper column and the precast concrete foundation 2. The base plate 3 and each side frame shell 5 are embedded and fixed to the upper column. A placement station is formed between the base plate 3 and the side frame shells 5. The energy-consuming component is fixedly installed in the placement station. There is enough space for the energy-consuming component to be inspected during normal use and replaced after an earthquake. Multiple second through holes 13 are provided on the base plate 3 for the unbonded prestressed tendons 6 to pass through.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the prefabricated concrete self-resetting energy-dissipating column base joint structure further includes multiple first thin-walled steel pipes 7 and multiple second thin-walled steel pipes 8. The first thin-walled steel pipes 7 are embedded and fixed in the precast concrete column 1 to replace the original longitudinal reinforcement of the precast concrete column, and unbonded prestressed tendons 6 pass through the channels within the first thin-walled steel pipes 7. Second thin-walled steel pipes 8 are installed on the precast concrete foundation 2 at positions corresponding to the first thin-walled steel pipes 7. Unbonded prestressed tendons 6 pass through the channels within the second thin-walled steel pipes 8 and are anchored to the precast concrete foundation 2. The longitudinal reinforcement of the precast concrete column 1 is replaced by thin-walled steel pipes 7, with unbonded prestressed tendons 6 installed inside and extending throughout the entire height of the joint, saving steel reinforcement and reducing the self-weight of the precast concrete column 1. The unbonded prestressed tendons 6 assume the load-bearing function of the original longitudinal reinforcement, while the thin-walled steel pipes 7 assume the structural function of the original longitudinal reinforcement. This provides a self-resetting function for the joint without reducing the original structural performance.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the unbonded prestressing tendon 6 is an unbonded high-strength, low-relaxation steel strand with an outer sheath of anti-corrosion lubricating grease and polyethylene. The unbonded prestressing tendon 6 in the first thin-walled steel tube is filled with an unbonded micro-expansion material between itself and the first thin-walled steel tube. The unbonded prestressing tendon 6 in the second thin-walled steel tube is filled with an unbonded micro-expansion material between itself and the second thin-walled steel tube, ensuring that the unbonded prestressing tendon 6 can slide freely within the ducts of the first and second thin-walled steel tubes. The number of unbonded prestressing tendons 6 and the tension control stress are determined by calculation, and the prestressing tendons should maintain elasticity under rare earthquakes of the corresponding fortification intensity.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the energy-dissipating component is a low-yield-point energy-dissipating soft steel 4. The energy-dissipating soft steel 4 can adjust its energy-dissipating capacity by changing its shape, size, and thickness, providing great flexibility. When an earthquake acts on the joint, the low-yield-point energy-dissipating soft steel 4 will enter the yielding stage before the main structure, thereby dissipating a large amount of seismic energy to ensure the safety of the main structure. After the earthquake, the precast concrete column 1 is reset to its original position under the action of unbonded prestressed steel strands. The replaceable energy-dissipating soft steel 4 is cut, and a new energy-dissipating soft steel 4 is welded to complete the joint repair.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, the prefabricated concrete self-resetting energy-dissipating column base joint structure also includes a grouting protective layer. The grouting protective layer wraps around the outside of the energy-dissipating soft steel 4, which can not only prevent out-of-plane buckling of the energy-dissipating soft steel 4 and improve the bearing capacity and energy dissipation capacity, but also prevent joint corrosion.
