摘要: |
Unbonded post-tensioned (UPT) tendons have been used in structural masonry walls to enhance the self-centering capability of the walls. However, the lateral displacement capacity of masonry walls with UPT tendons can be compromised by early crushing of the compression toes. To prevent toe crushing, this research study employed rubber pads underneath the bottom corners of a full-scale one-story wall. This concept was investigated by subjecting the wall sequentially to free vibration and quasistatic tests, which minimized damage to the masonry and reduced the strength degradation of the wall with increasing lateral drift. Two major damping components were identified: one is due to the instantaneous impact of the wall on the foundation base, and the other is due to the inelastic action occurring within the rubber pads during the continuous phase of rocking motion. Using the test results, a procedure is presented for designing masonry walls with rubber pads and UPT tendons. |
