A LUMPED-PARAMETER MODEL TO SIMULATE THE RESPONSE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMES WITH FILLER WALLS.

Abstract

A discrete physical model (lumped-parameter) has been developed for the analysis of reinforced concrete frames with masonry filler walls. The entire analytical procedure has been programmed for solution by digital computer, and yields crack formation and the load-deflection response up to the ultimate load. Comparisons are presented between results as obtained from analysis and tests of single- and five-story single-bay structures subjected to lateral loads. (Author)
