Lateral Load Response of Unbonded Post-Tensioned Cast-in-Place Concrete Walls
This paper describes an experimental study and numerical modeling of unbonded post-tensioned (UPT) cast-in-place reinforced concrete (RC) walls subjected to quasi-static cyclic load. Design of the test walls is based on ACI 318-11 with the base moment capacity provided by the post-tensioned strands versus the moment capacity provided by conventional reinforcing bars as the main parameter. The experimental results showed that a UPT cast-in-place RC wall can sustain large deformations before failure. Two wall specimens were tested. The test wall with more post-tensioned strands displayed better response in terms of self-centering capability. One test wall failed in shear. One test wall failed by bar buckling and fracture. Numerical models utilized fiber beam-column elements and nonlinear truss elements. Results from numerical models and experiments are compared. Numerical results were consistent with the experimental results for maximum load capacity.
