Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Many buildings in my country are entering the middle to late stages of their service life. Due to changes in their function, increased dead and live loads, and adjustments to design standards, many of these buildings require reinforcement due to increased seismic loads and insufficient lateral stiffness. To improve the lateral stiffness of structures, methods such as increasing beam and column cross-sections, adding concrete shear walls, or adding cross bracing can be used. However, among these methods, increasing beam and column cross-sections requires larger reinforcement beams; adding concrete shear walls requires wet construction and significantly increases vertical loads; and adding concrete cross bracing can easily lead to stress concentration and places high demands on connection nodes. Therefore, all of these reinforcement methods have certain drawbacks and are insufficient to meet the reinforcement needs of existing building structures. Utility Model Content

[0025] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5This invention provides a seismic reinforcement structure for existing concrete frames. The seismic reinforcement structure for existing concrete frames includes a concrete frame 1, a steel plate shear wall 2, an embedded plate 3, embedded reinforcing bars 4, and a connecting plate 5. The embedded plate 3 is embedded in the inner peripheral wall of the concrete frame 1 and has a through cavity in the same direction as the concrete frame 1. The embedded reinforcing bars 4 are connected to the embedded plate 3 and anchored within the concrete frame 1. The connecting plate 5 is connected to the embedded plate 3 and is perpendicular to the through direction of the concrete frame 1. The steel plate shear wall 2 is arranged vertically within the through cavity and is connected to the connecting plate 5 via a connector 6.
[0026] This embodiment provides a seismic reinforcement structure for an existing concrete frame. Compared with the prior art, this embodiment provides a seismic reinforcement structure for an existing concrete frame. Through the embedded reinforcement bars 4 and embedded plates 3, an effective connection is achieved with the concrete frame 1. The steel plate shear wall 2 is connected to the connecting plate 5 on the embedded plate 3, which facilitates the connection between the steel plate shear wall 2 and the existing concrete frame 1, improves the uniformity of stress, achieves effective reinforcement of the existing structure, improves the overall stiffness of the structure, and ensures the overall seismic performance of the structure. The elongated hole 53 is provided on the upper horizontal plate 51, which has the advantages of releasing vertical loads and reducing the buckling of the steel plate shear wall 2.
[0027] In this embodiment, a steel plate shear wall 2 is used to structurally reinforce the central region of the concrete frame 1. The concrete frame 1 is a rectangular hollow frame structure enclosed by longitudinally extending columns and laterally extending beams. The steel plate shear wall 2 is located in the central region of the concrete frame 1 and has high post-buckling load-bearing capacity and elastoplastic deformation capacity. Under seismic loading, the concrete frame 1 reinforced with the steel plate shear wall 2 exhibits superior seismic performance and features flexible and versatile structural forms, easy assembly, and easy replacement.
[0028] Reinforcing the existing concrete frame 1 using steel plate shear walls 2 results in a more uniform stress distribution on the structure. This allows for reinforcement and renovation on the original building foundation, ensuring overall structural reliability, improving the building's overall seismic performance, shortening reinforcement time, and reducing costs, demonstrating good practicality. The steel plate shear walls 2 are constructed from steel plates, resulting in minimal load increase, uniform stress distribution, and good ductility. As the first line of seismic defense, the steel plate shear walls 2 are connected to the connecting plates 5 using bolts and other connectors 6, facilitating replacement after an earthquake and improving ease of replacement. Please also refer to another possible implementation method. Figures 1 to 5The embedded plate 3 includes two horizontally extending first plate bodies 31 and two vertically extending second plate bodies 32. The length of the first plate body 31 is greater than the length of the second plate body 32. Four connecting plates 5 are provided, and the connecting plates 5 are connected to the first plate body 31 or the second plate body 32. The embedded plate 3 uses two horizontally extending first plate bodies 31 and two vertically extending second plate bodies 32. The lengths of the first plate bodies 31 and the second plate bodies 32 are set according to the dimensions of the floor height and the column spacing. If the floor height is greater than the column spacing, the length of the first plate body 31 is less than the length of the second plate body 32, and a tension band can be formed. If the floor height is equal to the column spacing, the length of the first plate body 31 is equal to the length of the second plate body 32, and a tension band is also formed. If the floor height is less than the column spacing, the length of the first plate body 31 is greater than the length of the second plate body 32, and one, two, or three tension bands arranged sequentially in the horizontal direction may be formed depending on the difference in length.
[0029] In this embodiment, multiple embedded plates 3 are provided on the inner periphery of the concrete frame 1, including two first plates 31 and two second plates 32. The first plates 31 are correspondingly arranged on the long side of the concrete frame 1, and the second plates 32 are correspondingly arranged on the short side of the concrete frame 1. The length of the first plates 31 is greater than the length of the second plates 32. Embedded reinforcing bars 4 extending into the interior of the concrete frame 1 are respectively connected to the first plates 31 and the second plates 32. The embedded reinforcing bars 4 connected to the first plates 31 are arranged perpendicular to the first plates 31, and the embedded reinforcing bars 4 connected to the second plates 32 are arranged perpendicular to the second plates 32.
[0030] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 The pre-embedded reinforcement 4 includes a first reinforcement 41 connected to the first plate 31 and a second reinforcement 42 connected to the second plate 32. Several first reinforcements 41 and second reinforcements 42 are provided respectively. The spacing between two adjacent second reinforcements 42 is equal, and the spacing between two adjacent first reinforcements 41 is equal.
[0031] In this embodiment, the embedded reinforcement 4 adopts a combination of the first reinforcement 41 and the second reinforcement 42. The first reinforcement 41 is perpendicular to the first plate 31 and connected to the first plate 31, extending into the long side of the concrete frame 1 to form an embedded function. The second reinforcement 42 is perpendicular to the second plate 32 and connected to the second plate 32, extending into the short side of the concrete frame 1 to form an embedded function. This facilitates the enhancement of the connection reliability between the steel plate shear wall 2 and the concrete frame 1, ensuring a reliable connection between the steel plate shear wall 2 and the concrete frame 1.
[0032] Specifically, multiple first reinforcing bars 41 are connected to the same first plate 31, with equal spacing between adjacent first reinforcing bars 41 to ensure balanced stress distribution at each location and guarantee the reinforcement effect at each point. Similarly, multiple second reinforcing bars 42 are connected to the same second plate 32, with equal spacing between adjacent second reinforcing bars 42, making the stress distribution on the outer periphery of the steel plate shear wall 2 more uniform and improving the reliability of the reinforcement.
[0033] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 The first rib 41 includes a reinforcing rib 411 and a denser rib 412. The denser rib 412 is located near both ends and the middle of the first plate 31, and the reinforcing rib 411 is located between two adjacent groups of denser ribs 412.
[0034] In this embodiment, according to the formation position of the structural tension band, a denser rib 412 is provided in the stress-bearing area of the tension band.
[0035] For details, please see Figure 1 Taking the example where the length of the first plate 31 is greater than the length of the second plate 32, the following explanation is provided. The length of the first plate 31 is approximately twice the length of the second plate 32. Two tension bands are distributed horizontally along a 45-degree angle. Based on the distribution of the tension bands, the key connection points are located near the ends and middle of the long side of the concrete frame 1. The steel plate shear wall 2 is prone to tensile stress at these locations. Therefore, reinforced reinforcement bars 412 are installed in these areas. The distance between two adjacent reinforced reinforcement bars 412 is less than the spacing between two adjacent reinforcing bars 411. By installing reinforced reinforcement bars 412, force can be effectively transferred, increasing the reliability of the connection between the steel plate shear wall 2 and the concrete frame 1, and enhancing the structural reinforcement effect.
[0036] Please refer to one possible implementation as well. Figures 1 to 5 The connecting plate 5 includes a transverse plate 51 and a longitudinal plate 52. The transverse plate 51 is connected to the first plate 31, and its two ends correspond to and are flush with the two ends of the first plate 31. The longitudinal plate 52 is connected to the second plate 32 and is located between the two transverse plates 51. The length of the transverse plate 51 is the same as the length of the first plate 31, which can realize the effective connection between the steel plate shear wall 2 and the transverse plate 51 in the transverse direction, ensuring good structural support effect and improving the reinforcement performance of the structure.
[0037] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 The distance between the two transverse plates 51 is greater than the length of the longitudinal plate 52. The longitudinal plate 52 is positioned between the upper and lower transverse plates 51, and there is a certain gap between the longitudinal plate 52 and the transverse plates 51 to ensure that the building can better disperse and absorb seismic energy during an earthquake, thereby reducing structural damage.
[0038] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 The upper horizontal plate 51 is provided with an elongated hole 53 extending vertically along the main shaft, the vertical plate 52 is provided with a circular hole 54, the lower horizontal plate 51 is also provided with a circular hole 54, the steel plate shear wall 2 is provided with a through hole 55, and the connector 6 is provided with the through hole 55 and the elongated hole 53 or the through hole 54 and the through hole 55.
[0039] In this embodiment, when connecting the longitudinal plate 52 and the steel plate shear wall 2, the connector 6 is provided through the circular hole 54 of the longitudinal plate 52 and the through hole 55 of the steel plate shear wall 2, and the longitudinal plate 52 and the steel plate shear wall 2 are effectively locked by the cooperation of bolts and nuts.
[0040] Meanwhile, when connecting the transverse plate 51 and the steel plate shear wall 2, the connector 6 is installed through the elongated hole 53 in the transverse plate 51 and the through hole 55 in the steel plate shear wall 2. The bolts and nuts work together to effectively lock the transverse plate 51 and the steel plate shear wall 2. To better ensure the function of the steel plate shear wall 2, the connector 6 often uses a high-strength bolt friction connection, and the contact surface is treated by shot blasting or other methods. By providing the elongated hole 53 on the upper transverse plate 51, the vertical force generated by the beam on the steel plate shear wall 2 can be effectively released, preventing the steel plate shear wall 2 from buckling under compression and ensuring the reinforcement effect of the steel plate shear wall 2 on the concrete frame 1.
[0041] Please refer to one possible implementation as well. Figures 1 to 5 In the penetrating direction of the concrete frame 1, the width of the concrete frame 1 is equal to the width of the first plate 31, and the width of the concrete frame 1 is equal to the width of the second plate 32. The width of the concrete frame 1 is the same as the width of the first body and the width of the second plate, which allows for reliable connection between the embedded plate 3 and the inner periphery of the concrete frame 1, while also providing structural support to its inner periphery. Furthermore, it can improve the reliability of the subsequent connection with the steel plate shear wall 2.
[0042] Please refer to one possible implementation as well. Figures 1 to 5 Two sets of embedded reinforcing bars 4 are spaced apart along the width direction of the embedded plate 3, and the two sets of embedded reinforcing bars 4 are symmetrically located on both sides of the connecting plate 5. Each set of embedded reinforcing bars 4 has a number of bars, and the number of embedded reinforcing bars 4 in each set are spaced apart along the length direction of the embedded plate 3.
[0043] In this embodiment, two sets of embedded reinforcing bars 4 are provided to enhance the connection effect with the concrete frame 1. The two sets of embedded reinforcing bars 4 are symmetrically located on both sides of the connecting plate 5 to ensure the connection performance with the concrete frame 1, and to a certain extent, to reinforce the inner periphery of the concrete frame 1, thereby improving the connection strength with the steel plate shear wall 2 and enhancing the seismic performance of the entire structure.
[0044] The aforementioned seismic reinforcement structure for existing concrete frames achieves effective connection with the concrete frame 1 through pre-embedded reinforcement bars 4 and pre-embedded plates 3. The steel plate shear wall 2 is connected to the connecting plate 5 on the pre-embedded plate 3, which facilitates the connection between the steel plate shear wall 2 and the existing concrete frame 1, improves the uniformity of stress, effectively strengthens the existing structure, improves the overall stiffness of the structure, and ensures the overall seismic performance of the structure.
[0045] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
