Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of construction, specifically to an energy-based energy dissipation and vibration reduction design method for reinforced concrete frame structures. Background Technology

[0002] Under earthquake loading, the total energy input to a structure is partially dissipated through the structure's own damping. The remaining energy is partly stored within the structure as kinetic and elastic strain energy, and partly dissipated through the plastic hysteresis of structural members. Hysteresis dissipation is the cause of structural damage. Traditional reinforced concrete seismic-resistant structures adopt a "hard resistance" approach, relying on their own strength to resist seismic forces. This method primarily aims to protect lives and achieve "no collapse under major earthquakes." However, relying on the plastic deformation of the structure's own load-bearing members to dissipate seismic energy leads to damage and residual deformation of structural members, making the structure unrepairable and requiring demolition and reconstruction after an earthquake, resulting in significant economic losses.

[0003] To address this issue, dampers can be added to seismically resistant structures. These dampers enhance the structure's energy dissipation capacity under strong earthquakes, reducing plastic damage to structural components. After an earthquake, only the energy-dissipating dampers need to be inspected and replaced as needed, allowing the structure to continue normal use after simple repairs, achieving the performance goal of "repairable even after a major earthquake." An earthquake's effect on a structure is a process of energy transfer, transformation, and dissipation. For a given structure, the energy input from an earthquake is a stable quantity, representing the total demand indicator of the structure's seismic resistance. The goal of energy-based seismic design is to ensure that the structure's total energy dissipation capacity exceeds the earthquake input energy. Therefore, compared to traditional load-bearing capacity-based and displacement-based seismic design methods, energy-based seismic design more comprehensively reflects the essence of structural seismic resistance. Existing seismic design methods, such as those described in publication number "CN103161347A", can assess whether the overall seismic design of energy dissipation and damping structures meets the requirements under the design seismic intensity level. However, during actual earthquakes, the energy consumption demand of each floor of a building varies. Existing design methods cannot calculate the minimum number of energy dissipation dampers to be arranged on each floor. They can only meet the seismic design requirements by continuously adding energy dissipation dampers, which results in high energy dissipation and damping costs. Therefore, this problem urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0129] Taking an 8-story reinforced concrete frame structure as an example, this structure is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the structure was designed using the method of this invention. The seismic fortification intensity is 8 degrees, the design earthquake group is Group 1, the design basic seismic acceleration is 0.2g, and the site category is Class II. The first floor has a height of 4.2m, the second floor has a height of 3.9m, and all other floors have a height of 3.6m.

[0130] Energy dissipation and vibration reduction design were carried out on the structure. First, the performance target for the structure under rare earthquakes was set as "repairable," with an energy performance index I of 0.2. Then, a computational model was established in finite element software, and modal analysis was performed to obtain the basic vibration modes of the structure. The calculated period of the equivalent single-degree-of-freedom system was 1.0 s, and the equivalent mass was 4366 t.
