Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of energy dissipation and vibration reduction technology, and relates to a semi-rigid metal energy dissipation device at the root of a shear wall. Background Technology
[0002] Shear walls are crucial structural components, through which the loads from the superstructure are transferred to the foundation, playing a decisive role in the structure's load-bearing capacity and stability. Since dampers in structural energy dissipation and vibration reduction technologies are typically prefabricated, this means that the energy dissipation devices are easy to install. Therefore, introducing load-bearing and energy-dissipating dampers into the base of reinforced concrete shear walls is an important means to achieve rapid assembly and excellent seismic performance.
[0003] Numerous studies have shown that under load, traditional reinforced concrete shear walls will form plastic hinges at the bottom, leading to severe damage and spalling of the concrete at the wall base, which is difficult to repair after an earthquake. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a semi-rigid metal energy dissipation device at the root of a shear wall, which can prevent the formation of a plastic hinge at the bottom of the shear wall under load.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention discloses a semi-rigid metal energy dissipation device at the root of a shear wall, comprising an ellipsoidal base, a shear wall, and a foundation;
[0006] The ellipsoidal base has a T-shaped structure. A constraint steel channel is provided at the bottom of the ellipsoidal base. The lower end of the ellipsoidal base is inserted into the constraint steel channel. The upper end of the ellipsoidal base is connected to the shear wall. The lower end of the constraint steel channel is fixed to the foundation. Several energy-dissipating components are provided between the foundation and the upper side of the ellipsoidal base.
[0007] The lower end of the ellipsoidal base has a semi-elliptical cross-section.
[0008] The energy-consuming component includes an upper end plate, a lower end plate, and an energy-consuming steel plate. A filler plate is provided between adjacent energy-consuming steel plates. The upper end of the energy-consuming steel plate is fixed to the bottom of the upper end plate, and the lower end of the filler plate is fixed to the lower end plate. The lower end plate is fixed to the foundation, and the upper end plate is fixed to the bottom of the upper side of the ellipsoidal base. The energy-consuming steel plate and the filler plate are connected by high-strength bolts.
[0009] The lower end plate is connected to the foundation by a first anchor rod.
[0010] The upper plate is connected to the ellipsoidal base by a second anchor rod.
[0011] Each energy-consuming component is distributed on both sides of the constrained steel channel.
[0012] In the same energy-consuming component, the energy-consuming steel plates and filler plates are distributed in parallel.
[0013] Several steel channel stiffening plates are provided on both sides of the constrained steel channel, and the lower end of the steel channel stiffening plates is fixed to the foundation.
[0014] The ellipsoidal base is embedded with steel bars.
[0015] The ellipsoidal base is filled with concrete.
[0016] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] In practical operation, the semi-rigid metal energy dissipation device at the base of the shear wall described in this invention features a constraint steel groove at the bottom of the ellipsoidal base, with the lower end of the ellipsoidal base inserted into the constraint steel groove. Several energy dissipation components are arranged between the foundation and the upper side of the ellipsoidal base. The ellipsoidal base and the energy dissipation components jointly bear the pressure and shear force, while the energy dissipation components bear the tensile force and bending moment. The force mechanism is clear, and the parameters are highly designable, thus preventing the formation of a plastic hinge at the bottom of the shear wall under load. Furthermore, the ellipsoidal base has a T-shaped structure, meaning it contacts the shear wall at a surface, avoiding stress concentration. Under seismic loading in all directions, most of the damage is concentrated on the energy dissipation components and the ellipsoidal base, achieving a "structural fuse" function.
[0018] Furthermore, the energy-dissipating steel plate will not become unstable and fail when subjected to pressure due to the double-sided constraint stiffening plates of the inner steel plate and the joint, thus giving the node a stable load-bearing and energy-dissipating capacity.
