Earthquake Simulator Study of a Reinforced Concrete Frame
This study presents the first test of a reinforced concrete structure conducted at the Earthquake Simulator Laboratory located at the University of California, Berkeley. A two story, one bay structure, representing the behavior of a typical small apartment or office building, was designed to meet the ductile concrete requirements of the 1970 Uniform Building Code and the ACI 318-71 Code. Using the 20 ft. square shaking table, it was subjected to a series of simulated earthquake ground motions with intensity large enough to cause significant inelastic deformations and change in the properties of the structure; the maximum base acceleration achieved was 0.46 g. The test structure was then repaired by injecting epoxy into the cracks and tested again with ground motions of equal or larger intensity than before. The structure was finally tested until failure using a static, horizontal load applied at the top floor.
