Abstract

Beam-column joints play an important role, affecting the earthquake response of reinforced con­crete (RC) frames. Their behavior is influenced by the way in which they damage the beams, columns and the complex interaction between the shear, bonding and confined mechanisms in a limited zone. To clarify the force-bearing and deformation of the joints that are being designed under earthquake loading and will be avail­able in Vietnam, experimental studies are conducted in 1:1 scale specimens. This paper introduces the results of experimental research on the failure and deformation of the joints, as well as the causes of these behaviors.

Keywords: Beam-column joint, seismic experiments, earthquake, reinforced concrete (RC).
