Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled Experimental Study on Embedded Steel Plate Composite Coupling Beams Submitted by Lam Wai Yin for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in April 2003 With the aim of providing the construction industry with a feasible alternative coupling beam design that improves the structural performance of coupled shear wall structures under wind and seismic loading, an experimental study has been conducted to study the effectiveness of embedded steel plate composite coupling beams, a recent design innovation. The design makes use of the composite action between structural steel and reinforced concrete by embedding a steel plate vertically into a conventionally reinforced concrete section containing longitudinal flexural and transverse shear reinforcement. The composite action is enhanced by shear studs welded onto the steel plate along the longitudinal direction close to the flexural reinforcement. Five coupling beam specimens with identical dimensions and a span/depth ratio of 2.5 were tested under reversed cyclic loading conditions. Two of the coupling beams were conventionally reinforced while the other three were embedded steel plate composite coupling beams, each with a vertically embedded steel plate spanning across the full span and being anchored in the wall piers. In order to investigate the effects of shear studs on the overall performance of the composite coupling beams, one of the composite coupling beams was embedded with a plain plate. The test results demonstrated the superior behaviour of embedded steel plate composite coupling beams over conventionally reinforced concrete coupling beams in respect of their strength, ductility, and energy dissipation capacities under elastic loading and inelastic deformations. A maximum average shear stress close to 10MPa and a maximum rotation ductility factor above 9 were respectively recorded in two embedded steel plate composite coupling beam specimens. It was also found that although embedding a steel plate in an RC coupling beam could increase both the initial stiffness and the loading capacity, shear studs must be provided to ensure the ductile performance of the composite coupling beams. Simple theories have been developed for calculating the beam capacity, the shares of loading between the steel plate and the reinforced concrete in an embedded steel plate composite coupling beam, the beam moment-curvature relationship, and the initial beam stiffness. These theories enabled experimental results to be predicted with a high degree of accuracy. Pullout tests were also carried out to study the respective contributions to the composite action of the shear studs and the natural bonding between an embedded steel plate and its surrounding reinforced concrete. Based on the experimental results and the reviews of previous studies on shear studs and reinforced concrete beams with bolted side steel plates, a design procedure of the shear stud arrangement in the beam span has been proposed.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled Plate-reinforced Composite Coupling Beams - Experimental and Numerical Studies Submitted by LAM Wai Yin for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in October 2006 This thesis reports the results of experimental and numerical studies conducted on innovative plate-reinforced composite (PRC) coupling beams, designed with the objective of providing the construction industry with a feasible alternative coupling beam design that improves the structural performance of coupled shear wall structures under wind and seismic loading. The design of these coupling beams makes use of the composite action between structural steel and reinforced concrete (RC) by embedding a steel plate vertically into a conventional RC coupling beam. Shear studs were welded onto the steel plate surfaces in the beam span and the wall anchorage regions to enhance the plate/RC composite action. These studies build on the results of a previous experimental study conducted by the author on medium-length PRC coupling beams of span/depth ratio (l/h) 2.5. Three medium-length (l/h = 2.5) and three short (l/h = 1.17) PRC coupling beams were tested under reversed cyclic loading conditions. The results have demonstrated the effectiveness of both short and medium-length PRC coupling beams with properly designed plate anchorage in resisting large shear forces and withstanding large inelastic imposed deformations. It was found that shear studs in the wall regions would help to ensure ductile beam performance and desirable energy dissipation ability under seismic deformations, and that their absence would hinder the full strength development of short PRC coupling beams. A general pattern of bearing stress distributions with consistently large bearing stresses near the beam- wall joints and toward the ends of the plate anchors was also derived. i In order to extend the investigations to PRC coupling beams of different geometries and steel contents, so as to develop a comprehensive design procedure for the new type of coupling beams, the two-dimensional non-linear finite element analysis (NLFEA) program ATENA was employed. By introducing discrete bond and shear stud elements as the media for the plate/RC load transfers that allowed for interface slips, selected test specimens were first modelled and the reliability of the program in predicting the beam performances was verified. An extensive parametric study was then conducted on nearly one hundred PRC coupling beam models to investigate the effects of variations in span/depth ratios, reinforcement ratios and plate geometries on the load-rotation response under monotonically increasing loading. The internal load distributions were also investigated and the relationship between different force components on the plate anchors identified. These investigations indicated that if the walls were insufficiently reinforced or the plate anchorage was too short, the result would be the undesirable "strong beam - weak wall" phenomenon. Maximum allowable shear capacities and minimum required plate anchorage lengths were therefore proposed for PRC coupling beams to prevent early failure of wall piers. In the light of the experimental and the numerical observations, a bearing stress distribution model considering vertical and horizontal bearing forces was proposed for the plate anchors.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled RETROFITTING OF REINFORCED CONCRETE COUPLING BEAMS BY BOLTED SIDE STEEL PLATES FOR STRENGTH AND DEFORMABILITY ZHU YONG For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in February 2006 Modern cities like Hong Kong contain numerous old reinforced concrete (RC) buildings which often require substantial strengthening, retrofitting or refurbishment as the materials used in their construction age. Many local RC buildings were built three or four decades ago, and their concrete and reinforcement have already suffered serious deterioration due to carbonation and chloride attack. Major retrofitting is normally required for these buildings. Furthermore, several existing buildings designed according to outdated design standards are deficient in shear reinforcement, and require substantial strengthening to increase their safety margin. A recent seismic hazard study has also revealed that Hong Kong is located in a region of low- to-moderate seismicity, and the latest design standards include increased load specifications. Many existing buildings were designed without any provision for earthquake resistance, and are now considered structurally inadequate. As a result the limited deformability and energy dissipation of existing structures, particularly their coupling beams, have become a major concern for many local structural and seismic engineers. Accordingly, this study provides a theoretical base for the design of retrofitting of RC coupling beams, and also establishes a fundamental framework for further investigations of strengthening of RC structure using bolted steel plate. In the first part of this thesis, a simple procedure based on the displacement-based approach has been derived for the seismic assessment of existing RC buildings. Using this procedure, the maximum seismic inter-storey drift demand of buildings and the maximum chord rotation demand of coupling beams with various span-to- depth ratios can be obtained easily. In the next part, an experimental study on full-scale retrofitting of RC coupling beams using bolted side steel plates is reported. The study revealed that external steel plate attachment by bolted connection could considerably enhance the strength, deformability and energy dissipation of RC coupling beams under reversed cyclic loads provided that appropriate connection details and arrangements were employed. The effects of local slip of mechanical bolt connections and buckling of steel plate could have a significant influence on the load-carrying capacity and the inelastic behavior of the retrofitted coupling beams. Detailed laboratory tests of dynamic set bolts and cast-in bolts were then conducted to investigate the load-slip behavior of the connection. The initial stiffness of dynamic set anchors was found to be much higher than that of cast-in anchors, and therefore dynamic set anchors were considered effective in controlling excessive bolt slips. The measured nonlinear slip relationships of various anchor bolts were used in a subsequent nonlinear finite element analysis and parametric study of the retrofitted beams. A set of guidelines with recommendations was drawn up for the design of anchor bolt arrangements. Two original theoretical models based on the rigid plastic and mixed analyses were also developed to predict the load-carrying ca

Coupled walls are a common lateral load resisting system found in many seismic regions. Coupling beams create a ductile link between the wall piers that increase the structures resistance to lateral forces and its ability to dissipate seismic energy. Replaceable steel coupling beams are an alternative to conventionally and diagonally reinforced concrete coupling beams and offer the advantage of improved constructability and post-earthquake reparability. Replaceable steel couplings beams have been studied in the past for shear yielding mechanisms. This research explores the concept of using flexure-yielding coupling beams with moment end-plate connections and reduced beam section cuts to reduce damage at the wall interface and further promote replaceability. Five two-third-scaled, cantilever steel coupling beams were tested under a fully reversed cyclic displacement protocol. The primary test variables were the RBS cut geometry, the utilization of a parallel steel coupling beams compared to a single steel coupling beam, and the moment end-plate connection to embedded connection. Coupling beams with RBS cuts showed deformation capacities of 8% and greater while the coupling beam without an RBS cut had a deformation capacity of 6%. Using RBS cuts within the parameters of AISC 358-16 resulted in the largest ductility. Lastly, it was determined that the moment end-plate connection design and detailing can have a significant effect on the beam stiffness.
