Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building engineering technology. Background Technology

[0002] In the known technical field, as building height and span increase, the thickness of shear walls in structural systems such as shear wall structures, frame-shear wall structures, frame-tube structures, and tube-in-tube structures also increases. When the building height exceeds 300 meters, the thickness of the bottom shear wall often exceeds 1.3 meters; and for buildings exceeding 600 meters in height, the thickness of the bottom shear wall even approaches 2 meters. This results in a significant increase in structural area, leading to a corresponding decrease in usable area and consequently a decrease in the floor area ratio. Simultaneously, the construction of large-volume concrete presents numerous difficulties, requiring strict crack prevention and temperature control, significantly increasing building material consumption, increasing building weight, and consequently increasing seismic forces, which in turn leads to a significant increase in foundation internal forces, further increasing foundation material consumption. This not only increases the workload and cost of the project but also extends the construction period. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new technical solution to address these problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model proposes a steel-concrete composite shear wall with significantly reduced wall thickness. Under the same usage conditions, it achieves a substantial reduction in shear wall thickness, thereby reducing the structural area. Correspondingly, it increases usable area, improves the floor area ratio, reduces building material consumption, saves costs, facilitates construction, and shortens the construction period. It solves the problems of existing technologies, such as large shear wall thickness, large structural area, correspondingly reduced usable area and floor area ratio, high building material consumption, long construction period, and high cost.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a steel-tube concrete composite shear wall with significantly reduced wall thickness, comprising square steel tubes, connecting steel plates, and concrete. Connecting steel plates are welded along the entire length between the square steel tubes to form a closed inner cavity. During processing, the connecting steel plates are made of steel with the same thickness as the wall thickness of the square steel tubes, ensuring that the area of ​​the inner cavity enclosed by the welding of the connecting steel plates and the square steel tubes is completely consistent with the inner cavity area of ​​the square steel tubes, thus forming a uniform steel tube. Using this steel tube replaces the vertical and horizontal distributed reinforcing bars in the prior art, avoiding the processes of reinforcing bar fabrication and tying, formwork fabrication and installation, etc., reducing construction difficulty and accelerating construction speed. Concrete is poured into each inner cavity of the steel tube. To ensure complete filling of the inner cavity and to improve the concrete strength grade, self-compacting high-strength concrete is used, greatly improving the bearing capacity of the steel-tube concrete composite shear wall while reducing the axial compression ratio, thereby significantly reducing the thickness of the shear wall.

[0005] Prior to this, the steel-tube reinforced concrete composite shear wall with significantly reduced wall thickness utilizes the interaction and synergy between the steel tubes and their inner concrete cavity, fully leveraging the advantages of both materials. While the inner concrete cavity bears the pressure, the "hoop effect" effectively constrains the outward expansion of the inner concrete cavity caused by pressure and limits the generation of vertical micro-cracks, placing the inner concrete cavity in a triaxial stress state; thus, its strength is greatly improved. Simultaneously, the inner concrete cavity provides auxiliary support to the steel tube wall, preventing buckling deformation.

[0006] Prior to this, the steel-tube reinforced concrete composite shear wall with significantly reduced wall thickness not only significantly improves the strength of the inner concrete cavity due to the restraining effect of the steel tubes, but also enhances the mechanical properties of the inner concrete, transforming brittle failure into plastic failure. This results in better ductility of the shear wall and avoids the brittle failure phenomenon commonly seen in existing shear walls. Furthermore, because steel possesses excellent strain capacity, it does not exhibit cracks caused by defects in the crack resistance of concrete; therefore, the steel-tube reinforced concrete composite shear wall exhibits excellent crack resistance. Fireproofing and corrosion protection measures for the steel tubes can be considered in conjunction with the decorative surface layer.

[0007] Preferably, the steel-concrete composite shear wall with significantly reduced wall thickness has structural edge members installed at both ends of the wall and on both sides of the wall openings to improve the shear wall's load-bearing performance and appropriately increase its ductility. Within the installation range, the thickness of the square steel tubes and connecting steel plates is appropriately increased.

[0008] Prioritized, for the steel-concrete composite shear wall with significantly reduced wall thickness, for the bottom reinforced portion of the shear wall and the wall segment above it in seismic grades I, II, and III, and for wall segments with an axial compression ratio greater than the limit, restrained edge members are installed at both ends of the wall and on both sides of the wall openings, according to the calculation and analysis results, to significantly improve the stress performance, bearing capacity, and ductility of the shear wall. Within the installation range, the thickness of the square steel tubes and connecting steel plates is increased according to the calculation and analysis results.

[0009] With rapid economic development and the scarcity of land resources, building heights are constantly breaking records, leading to a continuous increase in the thickness of reinforced concrete shear walls. This presents significant challenges in large-volume concrete construction, with temperature changes and shrinkage caused by the hydration of cementitious materials resulting in cracks and making the walls prone to breakage. The processes of rebar fabrication and tying, formwork fabrication and installation, pouring and curing are complex and time-consuming. High material consumption and weight negatively impact earthquake resistance, increasing structural area while decreasing usable area, thus reducing the floor area ratio. In contrast, this invention offers the following advantages: it significantly reduces shear wall thickness, reducing it to less than 55% of existing wall thicknesses. This typically avoids large-volume concrete construction, saving material consumption, reducing weight, improving earthquake resistance, and simultaneously reducing structural area while increasing usable area by more than 10%, thereby increasing the floor area ratio. All steel components are manufactured in the factory, featuring high manufacturing precision, a high degree of industrialization, improved assembly rate, reduced labor intensity, no need for formwork, simple structure, no need for reinforcement, prevention of pipe wall buckling and cracking, high efficiency and speed, and guaranteed precision and quality. This aligns perfectly with the national policy of vigorously promoting the construction industry. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the steel-tube concrete composite shear wall proposed in this utility model, which significantly reduces wall thickness, is constructed by determining the wall thickness *b* based on structural calculations, selecting a square steel tube 1 with a side length of *b*, and determining the wall thickness *t* of the square steel tube 1 based on structural calculations. Several connecting steel plates 2 of the same material and thickness *t* are selected, and the square steel tubes 1 are welded together to form a steel tube array. To ensure the flatness and uniformity of the composite shear wall, the connecting steel plates 2 are processed according to requirements such as weld bevel angle and weld size, ensuring that the welded enclosed inner cavity is identical to the inner cavity of the square steel tube 1 (i.e., each inner cavity is a square with a side length of *b* - 2t). Concrete 3 is then poured into each inner cavity to form the steel-tube concrete composite shear wall.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, to improve the load-bearing performance and appropriately increase the ductility of the shear wall, structural edge components called "hidden columns" are installed at both ends of the wall and on both sides of the wall opening within a diagonal range. The thickness t2 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 within this range is appropriately increased compared to the thickness t1 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 in the adjacent ordinary wall section. Correspondingly, the internal cavity dimension within this range is a square with a side length of b - 2t2; while the internal cavity dimension of the ordinary wall section is a square with a side length of b - 2t1.

[0024] like Figure 3As shown, to improve the load-bearing performance and appropriately increase the ductility of the shear wall, structural edge members "wing columns" are installed at the corners of the wall ends within a diagonal range. The thickness t2 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 within this range is appropriately increased compared to the thickness t1 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 in the adjacent ordinary wall section. Correspondingly, the internal cavity dimension within this range is a square with a side length of b - 2t2; while the internal cavity dimension of the ordinary wall section is a square with a side length of b - 2t1.

[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, to improve the stress performance and ductility of the shear wall, structural edge members called "end columns" are installed within the inclined range at the end of the wall. The thickness t2 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 within this range is appropriately thicker than the thickness t1 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 in the adjacent ordinary wall section. Correspondingly, the inner cavity dimension within this range is a square with a side length of b - 2t2; while the inner cavity dimension of the ordinary wall section is a square with a side length of b - 2t1.

[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, to improve the stress performance, bearing capacity, and ductility of the shear wall, within the inclined range of a typical "T-shaped" steel-concrete composite shear wall, constrained edge members are set according to the calculation and analysis results. The thickness t3 of the square steel tube 1 and connecting steel plate 2 within this range is thicker than the thickness t1 of the square steel tube 1 and connecting steel plate 2 in the adjacent ordinary wall section, according to the calculation and analysis results, and the thickness is not less than the thickness t2 of the aforementioned structural edge members, i.e.: t 3≥ t2. Correspondingly, the internal cavity dimensions within this range are squares with side length = b - 2t3; while the internal cavity dimensions of ordinary wall sections are squares with side length = b - 2t1.

[0027] like Figure 6 As shown, to improve the stress performance, bearing capacity, and ductility of the shear wall, within the inclined range of a typical "I-shaped" steel-concrete composite shear wall, constrained edge members are set according to the calculation and analysis results. The thickness t3 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 within this range is thicker than the thickness t1 of the square steel pipe 1 and connecting steel plate 2 in the adjacent ordinary wall section, according to the calculation and analysis results, and the thickness is not less than the thickness t2 of the aforementioned structural edge members, i.e.: t 3≥ t2. Correspondingly, the internal cavity dimensions within this range are squares with side length = b - 2t3; while the internal cavity dimensions of ordinary wall sections are squares with side length = b - 2t1.

[0028] like Figure 7As shown, to improve the stress performance, bearing capacity, and ductility of the shear wall, within the inclined range of a typical "L-shaped" steel-concrete composite shear wall, constrained edge members are set according to the calculation and analysis results. The thickness t3 of the square steel tube 1 and connecting steel plate 2 within this range is increased compared to the thickness t1 of the square steel tube 1 and connecting steel plate 2 in the adjacent ordinary wall section, according to the calculation and analysis results, and the thickness is not less than the thickness t2 of the aforementioned structural edge members, i.e.: t 3≥ t2. Correspondingly, the internal cavity dimensions within this range are squares with side length = b - 2t3; while the internal cavity dimensions of ordinary wall sections are squares with side length = b - 2t1.

[0029] like Figure 8 As shown, to ensure a reliable connection between the beams (including frame beams, connecting beams, etc.) and the shear wall, at the connection point between the square steel tube 1 and the beam, a beam top main reinforcement connector 7 is welded to the top main reinforcement 6; and a beam bottom main reinforcement connector 9 is welded to the bottom main reinforcement 8, used to connect and anchor the main reinforcement inside the beam. To ensure that the internal force of the beam is reliably transmitted to the shear wall and to meet the structural design requirements, a substitute steel plate 4 is welded inside the square steel tube 1 at the positions corresponding to the beam top main reinforcement connector 7 and the beam bottom main reinforcement connector 9. Its function is twofold: on the one hand, to replace the main reinforcement in transmitting internal force, and on the other hand, to also act as a stiffening rib, improving the working performance of the shear wall at the floor (roof) position in bearing the internal force transmitted by the beam. To ensure the quality of the concrete pouring in the inner cavity, a pouring hole 5 is provided at the center of the equivalent steel plate 4. The diameter of this hole is determined according to the construction technical requirements for self-compacting high-strength concrete pouring. The thickness of the equivalent steel plate 4 is determined based on the cross-sectional area of ​​the main reinforcement bars in the beam, and the area weakened by the pouring hole 5 should be deducted (i.e., the width of the equivalent steel plate 4 b - 2t, minus the diameter of the pouring hole 5, multiplied by the thickness. The result is the effective cross-sectional area of ​​the equivalent steel plate 4; this effective cross-sectional area ≥ the cross-sectional area of ​​the main reinforcement bars in the beam). The area where the equivalent steel plate 4 is installed should cover the area where the seismic anchorage length of the main reinforcement bars in the beam is located.
