Abstract

Prefabricated rocking wall structural system has the features of low seismic damage and quick energy dissipation, harnessing the unique response pattern of rocking. In this chapter, a new type of damage-controllable rocking wall system is proposed. The system consists of multiple walls embedded inside a frame structure, with the prestressed tendon providing the self-resetting feature, replaceable damping blocks between walls providing energy dissipation, and dry contact surfaces lowering residual deformation. Firstly, both the monotonic and cyclic responses are investigated theoretically. Secondly, quasi-static experiments are conducted using large-scale specimens. Thirdly, finite element simulations are carried out. The results show that the proposed system experiences efficient dissipation, low structural damage, and low residual displacement when subjected to earthquakes.
