The Effects of Applied Axial Stress on Lateral Bearing-Load Capacity for Fully Grouted Reinforced Concrete Masonry Shear Walls
Ten full-scale fully grouted reinforced concrete masonry shear walls were tested under force-displacement controlled reversed cyclic lateral loads simulating seismic effects. Relevant experimental phenomena and data indicated four walls failing in shear failure and the other six walls failing in flexure to evaluate seismic performance under compress, flexure and shear combined action. The paper mainly examinates lateral bearing-load capacity through two parameters: initial crack and ultimate strength under different failure modes. Through experimental analysis it can be concluded that the shear strength at the initial crack and ultimate load improved with the increased applied axial stress, and the increment of the shear strength was different in shear failure and flexural failure modes. Meanwhile, the ratio of the initial crack load to ultimate load on shear mechanism was from 0.57 to0.59, which was more stable than that(from 0.52 to 0.66)on flexural mechanism. In other words, the applied axial stress have more significant influence on flexural failure walls than shear ones.
