Each of the three independent jacket components has a different height due to the stress characteristics of column 1 under seismic loads. The bottom jacket component 21 needs to be inserted 10cm below the first-layer plane 9. Its inner side is fixed to the cast-in-place concrete, and its outer side is fixed to the first-layer plane 9 using structural adhesive to improve the integrity of the ECC jacket and the concrete structure. When connecting with structural adhesive, the thickness of the adhesive should be controlled at approximately 3-5mm; too thin an adhesive will affect the bonding strength, while too thick an adhesive will take too long to bond.

[0061] ;
[0062] ;
[0063] in, This represents the width of the column cross-section.
[0064] Three independent external jacket single pieces can avoid the through cracks of the jacket and affect the use efficiency. The inner side of the three jacket single pieces is chiseled to facilitate the close bonding with the cast-in-place concrete column 1. The bottom of the bottom jacket single piece 21 is connected with a layer of plane 9 through structural glue, and the top end is connected with the outer L-shaped plate 52 through structural glue; the upper and lower ends of the middle jacket single piece are connected with the upper outer L-shaped plate 52 and the lower outer T-shaped plate 53 through structural glue; the lower end of the top jacket single piece is connected with the outer T-shaped plate 53 through structural glue.

[0065] Preferably, the detection member 4 between the bottom jacket single piece 21 and the middle jacket single piece 22 is a displacement sensor 41, and the displacement sensor 41 is provided with a first alarm. The displacement sensor 41 is used for monitoring deformation, and when the displacement deformation reaches 1cm when an earthquake occurs, the internal first alarm will trigger a pre-warning signal, and when the deformation reaches 2cm, an emergency alarm signal will be sent.
[0066] Preferably, the detection member 4 between the middle jacket single piece 22 and the top jacket single piece 23 is an acceleration sensor 42, and the acceleration sensor 42 is provided with a second alarm. The number of displacement sensors 41 and acceleration sensors 42 is four, and one is arranged in the middle of each of the four faces of the column.

[0068] The prefabricated external ECC jacket combined column of the application significantly improves the stress and strain level of the concrete in the column body 1 through the synergistic effect of the prefabricated ECC jacket and the column body 1, and further greatly enhances the seismic performance. The multi-section ECC jacket design fundamentally solves the problem of the easy occurrence of penetrating cracks in the traditional reinforcement mode, ensures the continuous constraint effect of the jacket structure, and solves the technical problems of the structural column provided with the ECC jacket in the prior art, such as the easy occurrence of vertical penetrating cracks or local buckling damage under the action of load and the low seismic performance. The prefabricated component form of the application effectively avoids the construction difficulty of high maintenance and molding requirements of ECC material on site, the structure of the connecting assembly can effectively absorb and dissipate most of the buckling deformation that the ECC jacket may bear, prevent local damage failure, and at the same time significantly reduce the risk of large cracks in the ECC jacket under the action of earthquake, and maintain the continuous constraint effect of the ECC jacket on the core concrete.
[0069] The finite element analysis results of the comparison of the seismic performance of the prefabricated external ECC jacket combined column of the application and the traditional external ECC jacket combined column are as follows:
[0070] The modeling method of the model used in the comparison process refers to the Concrete Structure Design Standard (GB / T 50010-2010 (2024 edition)), Mander model (used to describe the stress-strain relationship of concrete under transverse steel reinforcement constraint), Clough steel reinforcement constitutive model (used to describe the damage accumulation of steel reinforcement in the process of cyclic loading), etc. The model has been tested and verified, and the error is less than 5%. The specific method is as follows:
[0071] The cross-sectional size of the column component used is 350*350mm, and the column height is 3000mm. The height of the traditional ECC jacket used is 800mm, and the jacket thickness is 50mm, which is simply wrapped around the plastic hinge area at the bottom of the column during implementation. The structure using the application is a three-section ECC jacket, and the sum of the heights of the three-section jacket is 800mm, and the jacket thickness is 50mm. When analyzing the seismic performance, two kinds of constant vertical axial compression ratios are compared, which are axial compression ratios of 0.2 and 0.6, respectively, and the horizontal loading is controlled by displacement. In addition, the increment of each level of horizontal displacement loading is 5mm, and each level of cycle is two cycles, and the loading is stopped until 50mm. Compared with ordinary concrete columns, the following compares the increments of the seismic performance improvement of two different ECC jacket combined columns under two kinds of axial compression ratios, and the specific results are as follows:
[0072]
[0073] It can be known from the comparison of the data that, compared with the traditional external ECC jacket, the anti-seismic performance of the column adopting the external ECC jacket of the application is more obviously improved, especially in the improvement of cumulative energy dissipation, the increment of which is more than one time of the traditional external ECC jacket. It is further illustrated that the multi-section prefabricated external ECC jacket combined column has the prospect of engineering promotion.
