ABSTRACT

In the Precast Seismic Structural Systems (PRESSS) research program (Stanton and

Nakaki, 2002), the unbonded post-tensioned frame with damping (hybrid frame)

performed very well in the experimental evaluation. The hybrid frame system offers

an important feature that allows the designer to eliminate residual drift aider an

earthquake. The PRESSS report outlined a series of step-by-step design procedures

for hybrid frames. In this project, the objective is to develop simplified design

procedures for precast hybrid frames. A set of new dimensionless parameters and

procedures for the design of hybrid frame is developed to replace current dimensional

parameters. A mild steel fracture criterion under combined axial and bending strains

is also proposed. Parametric studies were performed using the developed non-

dimensional formulation. These involved solving optimization problems to minimize

overall drift and achieve zero residual drift. The results of these studies were used to

generate non-dimensional design charts and simplified equations. Design examples

representing low and high seismic zones are presented. The results of the three

procedures (PRESSS, proposed design charts, and proposed design equations) are

compared. Very close agreement was found in all cases.

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

In the Precast Seismic Structural Systems (PRESSS) report Volume 3 - 09 (Stanton and

Nakaki, 2002), a total of five different seismic structural systems made from precast

concrete elements were proposed. These systems formed various parts of the structural

framing in the PRESSS Phase III experimental building that was tested at the University

of California at San Diego.

The unbonded post-tensioned frame with damping (hybrid frame) performed very well in

the PRESSS evaluation. The hybrid frame system offers an important feature that allows

the designer to eliminate residual drift after an earthquake: This feature is not available in

the framing systems recognized in the 1997 Uiform Building Code (UBC). The PRESSS

report outlined a series of step-by-step design procedures for hybrid frames.

1.20b|ectives

One of the recommendations in the PRESSS report involved the development of a series

of design examples for the Hybrid frame. The objectives of this research are:

1. To develop a set of new dimensionless parameters to replace current dimensional

parameters in the calculation process.

2. To perform parametric studies based on a new non-dimensional formulation of

the PRESSS design procedures. These studies involve solving a large number of

optimization problems to minimize overall chill and achieve zero residual drift.

Design charts will be generated based on these parametric studies.

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

3. To develop and verify simplified equations for the design of hybrid frames. These

charts and equations will enable designers to perform the design in fewer number

of steps, while affording them the opportunity to easily see how changing one or

more parameters would affect the design.

4. To develop a mild steel fracture criterion under combined axial and bending

strains by controlling the total plastic strain in the bar below a maximum value.

5. To prepare a number of design examples that includes comparisons of PRESSS

and new procedures.

1.3 Hybrid Frame - Concept Description

The hybrid frames contain precast elements (beams and columns) that are connected by

unbonded post-tensioning steel and bonded reinforcement bars, both of which contribute

to the overall moment resistance (Figure 1). An interesting feature of the connection

between beam and column is the hybrid combination of mild steel and post-tensioning

steel where the mild steel is used to dissipate energy by yielding in tension and

compression and the post-tensioning steel is used to clamp the beam against the column.

The post-tensioning force would act as a clamping/restoring force to bring the frame back

to its original configuration after an earthquake, and would provide for shear resistance

through friction developed at the beam-column interface. For a given total moment

strength, a higher proportion of mild steel reinforcement would result in more apparent

damping, lower peak drift, and higher residual drift.

The general design philosophy, as presented by Stanton and Nakaki (2002), is to

minimize peak drift, maintain zero residual drift, and maximize the moment strength

provided by the mild steel reinforcement. Figure 2 shows the relationship between peak

and residual drifts, where

The process of finding the best solution is basically an optimization problem that can be

implemented in a parametric study. Such a parametric study utilizing non-dimensional

parameters is the subject of this research.

CHAPTER 2

Fracture Criteria for the Unbonded Mild Steel Bars in Hybrid Frames

2.1 Introduction

From preliminary nonlinear finite element (FE) analyses of a 3-D model of a hybrid

frame system [Hawileh, 2003], it was determined that the mild steel bars in a hybrid

frame exhibit significant inelastic axial and bending strains. Once the gap at the beam-

column interface opens, relatively high levels of repetitive plastic strains develop in the

mild steel bar. This prompted a need for considering the low-cycle fatigue of the mild

steel bars including both bending and axial strains. The relatively high inelastic strains in

the FE model show the potential vulnerability of mild steel bars to low-cycle fatigue

failure. It should be noted that both the PRESSS [Stanton and Nakaki, 2002] and

National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) [Cheok and Stone, 1994] test

reports indicate bar fractures during cyclic testing.

A mild steel fracture criterion is therefore needed in the design procedure for hybrid

frames by controlling the total plastic strains in the mild steel bar below a maximum

value. This criterion should be based on the low-cycle fatigue behavior of reinforcing

steel.

Mander and Panthaki (1994) studied the behavior of reinforcing steel bars under low-

cycle fatigue subjected to axial-strain reversals with strain amplitudes ranging from yield

to 6%. Liu (2001) studied the low-cycle fatigue behavior of steel bars subjected to

bending strain reversals with variable amplitudes. In this study, a mild steel fracture

criterion under combined axial and bending strains is proposed based on the works of

Mander, Panthaki, and Liu.

2.2 Bending Strain Calculations for Bars

Liu (2001) presented the following procedure for calculating strain-displacement

relationships for bars subjected to bending when the material is stressed beyond the

elastic range. Consider the deformed bar segment shown in Figure 2.1 below.

are at the center of the bar), the bending strain and the radius of curvature can be

calculated as follows:

2.4 Inelastically Deformed Geometry of Bars

As shown in Section 2.2 of this report, the deformed geometry of the bar is needed to

allow calculation of bending strains. Therefore, it is important to determine the

inelastically deformed shape of the reinforcing bar at Odes. A FE model can be used to

accurately predict the inelastically deformed shape of the bar. Once AN equation for the

deflected shape of the bar is derived, the bending and axial strains of the bar can be

calculated based on the equations of sections 2.2 and 2.3.

A parametric study involving multiple nonlinear FE models was performed to understand

the combined axial and bending behavior of the mild steel bar for six different cases

listed in Table 2.1 below.

2.4.1 The FE Model

The undeformed geometry of the mild steel bar at the beam-column interface is modeled

as shown in Figures 2.4 through 2.7 and Table 2.2 below. The partially unbonded bar and

two concrete blocks representing parts of the beam and column are modeled. The grout

around the bar in the bonded portion is also modeled. The length of the concrete block is

assumed to be 20 inches on each side of the unbonded length of the bar to provide

sufficient bar bonded length for all study cases.

2.4.2 Types of Elements

The ANSYS finite element program was utilized [ANSYS user manual, version 7.1,

2000]. The geometry, node locations, and the coordinate system for the ANSYS element

BEAM 188 are shown in Figure 2.8 below. BEAM188 is defined by nodes I and J in the

global coordinate system. Node K is always required to define the orientation of the

element. The element has six degrees of freedom at each node. The degrees of freedom at

each node include translations in x, y, and z directions, and rotations about the x, y, and z

directions. BEAM188 has linear, large rotation, and/or large strain nonlinear capabilities.

The most important characteristic of BEAM 188 is that it can be used with any cross

section. Elasticity and plasticity models are supported (irrespective of cross section

subtype). This element is based on the Timoshenko beam theory. Shear deformation

effects are also included.

Densi_ty (~): The densities of steel (mild steel and post-tensioning) and concrete were

assumed to be 490 lb/ft3 and 150 lb/ft3, respectively.

Poisson’s Ratio (v): The Poisson’s Ratio (v) was assumed to be 0.3 for steel and 0.2 for

concrete.

2.4.4 BoundalW Conditions and Loads

The entire concrete block nodes on the left side of the bar’s unbonded length were

restrained (fixed) in all 6 directions (Figure 2.4). All of the concrete block nodes at the

right end of the unbonded mild steel bar were simultaneously deformed to achieve the

following concurrent displacements and rotation

¯ A horizontal displacement AX

¯ A vertical displacement AY

¯ A rotation

The grout and reinforcing bar elements were not restrained in either block. The values of

these applied displacements for the six different cases are listed in Table 2.1. The relative

magnitudes of these displacements are consistent with the deformations in hybrid frames.

2.4.5 Results

The FE model provides full fields of stress and strain throughout the model. Figure 2.14

shows the deflected shape of the entire model. Figures 2.15 through 2.18 show the

horizontal and vertical deformations of the model and the bar for the Model No. 1. The

total (elastic + plastic) axial strains and stresses for. bar, grout, and concrete are shown in

Figures 2:19 through 2.24. The results for the bar axial and bending strains are listed in

Table 2.4.

In all six model cases, the vertical deformation data for the bars were fitted into a 3rd

order polynomial. The R2 value of this regression analysis is 1.0 in all cases, which

means that the regression results provide perfect, fit for the FE results. The equations for

the vertical deflection, slope, second derivative, curvature, and bending strain take the

2.5 Low-Cycle Fatigue for Bar Fracture

2.5.1 Introduction:

High-cycle fatigue and low-cycle fatigue fractures are two different modes of damage in

members subjected to cyclic loading. Low-cycle fatigue is associated with high strain

ranges and low relatively number of cycles would be needed to produce fatigue failure. In

low-cycle fatigue, significant plastic deformations occur during each cycle. On the other

hand, high-cycle fatigue is associated with lower stress/strain ranges (strain cycles are in

the elastic range) and larger number of cycles would be needed to produce fatigue failure.

Low-cycle fatigue lives typically range from one up to 105 cycles, and high-cycle fatigue

cycle lives are greater than 105 cycles [Collins, 1993].

35

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

2.5.2 Low-Cycle Fatigue Relationships for Reinforcing Steel Bars:

Manson and Coffin (1955) proposed the following empirical equation to estimate the

general fatigue life of a material:

A._~_~ = 2N~.)b + ~f (2Nf ) (2-43)2

Where:

A, = total strain range (*m~x - ~min)

c~’f = fatigue strength coefficient

Nf = number of cycles to failure

E = modulus of elasticity

b = fatigue strength exponent (ranges from -0.05 to -0.15)

~’f = fatigue ductility coefficient

c = fatigue ductility exponent (ranges from -0.5 to -0.8)

The first term in the above equation represents the elastic strain component (high-cycle

fatigue) and the second term represents the plastic strain component (low-cycle fatigue).

The mild steel bar in hybrid frames is subjected to large inelastic deformations. Mitchel

(1979) and Koh and stephens (1991) found that for most low-cycle fatigue analyses the

elastic part can be neglected, for which the above equation can be simplified.

-~- = ~fA~ ,(2Nf)C(2-44)

Mander (1994) experimentally evaluated the low-cycle fatigue behavior of reinforcing

steel bars subjected to cyclic axial strain amplitudes ranging from yield to 6%. He

evaluated the experimental results with existing low-cycle fatigue models found in the

literature..The experimental data were fit to existing fatigue equations. As a result, low-

cycle fatigue life relationships were developed for reinforcing steel bars. The following

fatigue life relationships are all based on the work of Mander (1994).

The relationship between plastic-strain amplitude (~ap) and low cycle fatigue life for axial

deformations of steel bars is as follows:

A~p _ 0"08(2NI)-°5(2-45)~ap- 2

Where

~.p = plastic strain amplitude -2

(2-46)

range of plastic strain = ep,m~- (2-47)

~o,max = maximum plastic strain in a cycle

o~p,m~. = minimum plastic strain in a cycle

NI = number of cycles to failure

The total axial strain amplitude of the mild steel deformed reinforcement subjected to

strain cycles ranging from zero to ~s,max can also be calculated using the above low cycle

fatigue equations as follows [Mander, 1994]:

Although many of the test performed by Mander (1994) were on ASTM A615

reinforcing bars, the author recommends the above equation for all steel types. Additional

tests on ASTM A706 bars are being performed by the writers of this report.

!n a separate study by Chin Liu (2001), mild steel bar specimens were subjected to

bending reversals and low-cycle fatigue life relationships were developed. The results of

constant displacement amplitude tests were plotted and a best fit relationship of the

following form was derived:

~,~, = A~b = 0.23(2NI)-°32 (2-51)2

Where

Figure 2.31 Plastic Strain-Life Relationship

It can be noticed from Figure 2.31 that for a given number of cycles to failure, low cycle

bending fatigue can achieve higher maximum strain amplitude than low cycle axial

fatigue. In other words, for the same maximum strain amplitude in the bar, specimens

subjected to cyclic bending strains would have longer life than pure axial strains. This

difference is expected to occur because under bending, only the extreme fibers of the

cross section develop maximum strain

The low-cycle fatigue equations under bending action can be converted to equivalent

fatigue equations under axial loading [Chin Liu, 2001]. If the number of cycles to failure

is assumed to be the same for both the axial and bending equations, the effective strain

amplitude under axial loading can be calculated as follows:

Where:

(2-56)

(2-57)

Based on the above, the effective strain amplitude under bending for the mild steel bar is:

-g~ = 0.63(gb)~4 (2-58)2

(2-59)

and

The effective axial strain amplitude and the corresponding maximum effective axial

strain for the six FE model cases are listed in Table 2.6 below:

6 0.0198 0.0019 0.00019

It can be noticed from Table 2.6 that the value of the effective axial strain amplitude (~a’)

is much smaller than the axial strain in the bar. However, the bars in the study by Liu

[Liu, 2001] were subjected to bending reversals only without subjecting the bar to.plastic

axial strain throughout the section. The above equation (2-59) is not directly applicable to

bars in hybrid frames because the additional axial strain due to bending in hybrid frames

is superimposed on a fully plastic section from the axial loading effects.

This issue requires an experimental evaluation program to address the combined axial-

bending strain effects on low-cycle fatigue of bars. In lieu of this experimental

evaluation, the proposed conservative approach is to find the maximum total strain

variation in the mild steel bar by adding the maximum bending strain with the axial strain

as follows [Collins, 1993]:

~tot,~ = %~,~ + ~b (2-60)

The ~tot,1 can be conservatively used to estimate low-cycle fatigue life using Mander’s

recommended equation (Eq. 2-48).

2.6 Effects of Nonzero Mean Strain On Low-Cycle Fatigue Behavior

The mild steel bars in the hybrid frame are subj ected to nonzero mean plastic strains. The

minimum strain emin in the bars is approximately equal to approximately zero. That is, the

strain ranges from zero up to some maximum strain value (say 4%) and then back to zero.

Therefore test results should be adjusted to account for the nonzero mean strain effects if

needed.

A few investigators [12] have studied the effects of nonzero mean strain under low-cycle

fatigue. The experimental results indicate that the effect of compressive mean strain is the

same as the effect of tensile mean strain on low-cycle fatigue if their magnitudes are the

same. The effects of nonzero mean stress are of primary importance only in high-cycle

fatigue where the sign of the mean stress being compressive or tensile may increase or

decrease the fatigue life (Koh and Stephens, 1991).

The mean strain effects were found to be negligible for the range of strain amplitudes

(1% to 6%) used in an experimental study on low-cycle behavior of reinforcing steel bars

[Mander and Panthaki, 1994]. Thus the mean stress and mean strain effects on the low-

cycle behavior of bars can be neglected in design. The total strain range is therefore

considered.

2.7 Effect of Grout in the Duct

Raynor and Lehman [2002] studied the bond characteristics of bars grouted in light-

gauge metal ducts. Growth in the unbonded length of the bar was noticed under high

cyclic strain. This leads to a non-uniform strain distribution at each end of the unbonded

length of the bar as shown in Figures 2.19 through 21. Raynor and Lehman (2002)

represented the bar elongation due to strain penetration by an equivalent additional

unbonded length Lua as follows:

Where

(2-61)

f~u = steel bar ultimate strength (90 to 110 ksi for ASTM A706 bars)

f~y = steel bar yield strength (ksi)

fg = grout strength (ksi)

Thus the average axial strain would be equal to:

Where

Table 2.7 below compares the above equation that calculates the average strain in the bar

due to strain penetration with the FE results for the six study cases. The assumed grout

strength and the yield strength of the bar are as follows:

It can be noticed from Table 2.7 that the FE results and the empirical equation that

calculates the additional equivalent unbonded length in the bar are veryclose (within 15

%). Therefore the equation proposed by Raynor and Lehman (2002) is considered valid

and can be used in both analysis and design.

Chapter 3

Simplified Design Procedures for Precast Hybrid Frames

In this chapter, the PRESSS design procedures are first described followed

presentation of the proposed non-dimensional procedures and simplified equations.

by a

3.1 Hybrid Frame - PRESSS Design Procedure

The design equations proposed in the PRESSS report are based on the following

assumptions (Stanton and Nakaki, 2002):

1. The design forces (Mdes) and drifts (Odes) are known.

2. The overall dimensions of the frame members are known.

3. At each interface, the centroid of the Post-tensioning tendon is located at the mid-

depth of the beam section.

4. The Post-tensioning tendon is at incipient yield at the design drift.

5. the Post-tensioning tendon is unbonded for the entire length of the frame.

6. Equal top and bottom mild reinforcement is used.

7. Properties of the materials are known.

The PRESSS design equations use deformation compatibility and equilibrium of forces to

calculate the forces and the resulting moment capacity at the interface between precast

beams and columns.

The forces acting on a joint between precast beam and column in a hybrid frame

subjected to a design interface rotation of 0~les are shown in Figure 3.1.

As = tensile axial deformation of mild steel reinforcement

A’s = compressive axial deformation of mild steel reinforcement

~ = distance from the center of the mild steel bar to the nearest face divided by the height

of the beam

According to the PRESSS procedures, a total of 17 steps are required to design the Post-

tensioning tendon and the mild steel reinforcement at the interface. Step 16 calculates the

required unbonded length and elongation of the mild steel reinforcement.

The PRESSS design process is based on an iterative approach and utilizes a number of

dimensional design parameters. The PRESSS design procedure steps (Stanton and

Nakaki, 2002) are summarized as follows:

Step 2: Obtain Design Loads (M~es) and Drifts (0aes, in percent)

Design loads can be obtained by using either Forced-Based Design (FBD) or

Displacement-Based Design (DBD).

Step 3: Estimate Frame Beam Dimensions

hg _< In/3 (3-1)

bg _> 0.3 hg (3-2)

Where:

bg = beam width

In = clear span of beam between column faces

Step 4: Establish Constants

A term Afp~ is defined below, which is subsequently used in step 11 to calculate stress

change in the tendon.

Af,~ =0.5EpO,~eshg (3-3)

Where:

lpu = unbonded length of pre-stressing tendon tributary to one interface

lpu = ln/2 + he/2

he = column width

lpu = half of the average span length if the span lengths along the tendon are not equal.

Step 5: Determine the Proportion of the PT and Deformed Reinforcement Moment

Strengths.

In the first iteration, an initial estimate can be made as follows:

Mp,des ~ 0.55 Mdes (3-4)

49

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

Ms,,~es = Maes -

Where:

Mdes = total resisting moment at design limit state

Mp,des = resisting moment provided by PT tendon

(3-5)

Ms,de~ = resisting moment provided by tension mild steel reinforcement

Step 6: Estimate the required area of PT Tendon (Ap)

Initially (1st iteration) assume that the compression force in the beam is located 0.05hg

fi:om the compression face or the depth of Whitney stress block (a) is equal to 0.1hg. This

assumption leads to:

Ap = MP":les (3"6)(0.45hg)f,y

Step 7: Estimate the Required Area of Deformed Reinforcement (As)

Using the same assumption as in Step 6 such that:

A, = Ms’d~ (3-7)( 0. 9 5-~ ) h g/~s,ae, f sy

Step 8: Estimate the Neutral Axis Parameter at the Design Drift (~d~)

The relative location of the neutral axis can be found using the assumption that was made

in Step 6 such that:

0.1 (3-8)

This initial estimate of the neutral axis location will be adjusted during the iterative

design procedure.

Step 9: Calculate the Stress in the Tension Mild Steel Reinforcement

f~,d~ = 2~,d~ f,~ (3-9)

The compression force (Fc,des) between the grout and concrete is calculated based on the

equilibrium of forces at the section.

Step 13: Calculate the Locations of the Compression Force and the Neutral Axis

The depth of the Whitney equivalent stress block (a~es), the relative position of the

compressive force as a fraction of overall height ((Xdes), and the relative position of neutral

axis as a fraction of overall height (Tide~) can be calculated as follows:

Fc,desa~ 0.85f~’ b (3 -22)

= aa~ (3-23)~ des 2h

The above-calculated value of T~des is then compared with the previous value (Step 8 or

previous Step 13), and Steps 11-13 are repeated until the computed and the old and new

values of Tides converge.

Step 14: Calculate the Moment Strength of the Section at 0ae~

Taking moments of the forces in the PT and deformed reinforcement about the centroid

of the compression force yields:

M~,,ae, = F~,,a~h(0"5 - aa~,) (3-25)

M,,a,, = ~,a,,h(l_ff _aa~) (3-26)

M,,,a~ = F,,,,~h(ff -aa~) (3-27)

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

The total moment strength should be greater or equal to the design moment

~ M~,p,be, m > Ma~ (3-29)

If Mcap,beam < Mdes, increase Ap and As and repeat Steps 11-14 until convergence is

achieved.

Step 15: Evaluate the Restoring Properties of the Beam

At zero drift, the restoring moment provided by the PT tendon should be greater than the

corresponding moment due to the mild reinforcement, to ensure the re-centering of the

frame after an earthquake. Both sets of reinforcement (top and bottom) would be in

compression. Thus the forces, depth of Whitney equivalent stress block, location of

compression force and neutral axis, and the moments at zero drift can be calculated as

follow:

Fso = As/Zs,,,~f~y (3-30)

F~,o = A~A,,,desf, y (3-31)

Fpo = Apf pi (3-32)

Fco = Fpo - F,o - F,,o (3-33)

M ~,o = Fpoh(0.5 -ao) (3-37)

M,o = Fsoh(1-~-ao) (3-38)

Ms,o = F¢oh(ff -ao) (3-39)

To ensure self-centering

Moo > Ms0 + Ms’0 (3-40)

Where:

Fs0 = force in tension mild steel reinforcement at zero drift

Fs,0 = force in compression mild steel reinforcement at zero drift

Fp0 = force in PT tendon at zero drift

Feo = force between beam concrete and grout at zero drift

ao = depth of Whitney compression block at zero drift

oto = distance from the center of the compression block to the beam compression face

divided by the beam height at zero drift

rio = distance from the neutral axis to the beam compression face divided by the beam

height at zero drift

Moo = resisting moment provided by PT tendon at zero drift

M~0 = resisting moment provided by tension mild steel reinforcement at zero drift

Ms,o = resisting moment provided by compression mild steel reinforcement at zero drift

If self-centering criterion in equation 3-40 is not met, then select a higher ratio of

Ml~,deJMs,des and repeat steps 5 - 15 until the criterion is met.

Step 16: Calculate the Elongation and Required Unbonded Length of the Mild Steel BarAs = 0d~h(1-~’-r/a,,)

(3-41)

The strain in the mild steel deformed bar should be equal or less to the maximum usable

strain (~,max). The unbonded length of the bar must therefore satisfy the following

condition:

lsu > As (3-42)

Step 17: Confine Compression Region

The common assumption that plane sections remain plane would not be valid at the

beam-column interface because the PT tendon is unbonded and pre-stressed. Also the

beam end deformation is concentrated in a single crack [Stanton and Nakaki, 2002].

Therefore, the concrete strains cannot be calculated from the curvature and a plastic hinge

length.

Stanton and Nakaki [2002] recommended a plastic hinge length, taken as a function of

the compression zone depth such that

lph = kph Tides h (3-43)

Where:

kph = 1 (Without experimental validation)

~ - Od~(rla~h) - O~e~ (3-44)lph kph

Where:

ec = concrete compression strain at beam compression face

The compression region, should be confined if the calculated concrete strain is greater

than the ultimate concrete strain (_= 0.003).

3.2 Overview of Other Design Factors

A more simplified design procedure including user-friendly design charts and equations

would be helpful in gaining more widespread acceptance and utilization of" this

significant technology for precast seismic - resistant construction. This can be achieved

by developing dimensionless parameters that would be utilized in non-dimensional

equations applicable to most cases. The derivations of the proposed non-dimensional

design parameters and equations are described in the following.

The proposed material over-strength factors suggested by the PRESSS report are based

on the authors’ observations (Xs,aes = 1.35 and Ls’,0es = 1). However, according to section

3.3.3 of the ACI T1.2-03 the tensile strength of the mild steel reinforcement must be

taken as the specified minimum tensile strength fu and the compressive strength must be

taken as 1.25fy (in absence of test data on the stress-strain properties of the mild steel

reinforcement). A more rational procedure based on inelastic cyclic behavior of

reinforcing steel bars is needed for calculating the reinforcing steel’s over-strength

factors in tension and compression. Although, discussions on finding Ls,0es and ~s’,des

based on experimental results are given later in this section, the values recommended by

ACI T1.2-03 were used in the examples provided in chapter 4.

A potential failure mode of the hybrid frame is the fracture of the mild steel bars. Tests of

hybrid frame connections by NIST (Cheok and Stone, 1994) indicated fracture of bars

during cyclic loading. Thus the prediction of steel fracture is a very important aspect and

should be considered in the design procedure based on low-cycle fatigue behavior of

bars. The PRESSS procedures do not currently address this issue specifically.

Section 3.3.2 of the ACI T1.2-03 recommends that ASTM A 706 reinforcing bars be used

in hybrid frames and specifies a maximum strain (Ss,max) that is 2% less than the strain at

the minimum elongation indicated in ASTM A 706 for a given bar size. For a #8 bar, this

limit would be 10%. This limit could be as high as 12% for other bar sizes.

Priestly and Seible (1996) recommend that the maximum allowable strain in the mild

steel reinforcement under cyclic loading should be limited to 75% of ultimate strain and

6% in absence of better information. Fatigue tests of ASTM A706 bars (with or without

non-zero mean strain) are currently not available. The low-cycle fatigue behavior of

A706 deformed-steel reinforcing bars will be evaluated experimentally at the University

of Wisconsin Milwaukee. The deformed bars will be subjected to cyclic axial strain

amplitudes ranging from 2% to 10% with non-zero mean strain.

As discussed in chapter 2, Mander (1994) experimentally evaluated the low-cycle fatigue.

behavior of ASTM A615 grade 40 ordinary deformed reinforcing steel bars subjected to

cyclic axial strain amplitudes ranging from yield to 6%. The plastic-strain amplitude

relationship with fatigue life for reinforcing steel bars is given by Mander (1994) as:

!~’~’p _ 0.08(2Ni)-o., (3-45)%- 2

Where:

g.~, = plastic strain amplitude - ~m~x- ~n2

Aep = plastic strain range = ~m~x- ~rnin

%~x ----- maximum plastic strain in a cycle

gm~ = minimum plastic strain in a cycle

0.0032~ Nf - (gap)2 (3-47)

The hysteretic behavior of bars subjected to cyclic deformations should be considered

when determining the stress level in the bar at maximum design strain. The maximum

tensile stress fmax,a" (in ksi) corresponding to ~ap can be calculated using the following

equation proposed by Mander (1994) for reinforcing steel bars:

fmax,rO%p = 51.6(2N:)-°"541 (3-48)

Substituting for Nffrom Equation 3-47 yields:

fm~x,r = 145(~.p)°~8 (3-49)

fmax,T2s,des =~ (3-50)

f,

Using the above equation, the )~s,aes values for ~ap of 0.04 and fy of 60 ksi would be 1.354,

which is close to the 1.35 values suggested by Stanton and Nakaki.

According to Mander (1994), the equivalent number of equi-amplitude cycles of building

motion in an earthquake (Nc) can be conservatively estimated using the following

equation:

-1

Nc = 7T5- (3-51)

Where

T = fundamental period of the structure in seconds

Chang and Mander [ 1994] report that the number of equi-amplitude cycles (Ne) depends

on the earthquake and the period of the structure as shownin Figure 3.2 below.

Therefore, substituting Nc from equation 3-51 as Nf in equation 3-45 yields the following:

Sap = 0.021T1/6 (3-52)

The mild steel bar in the hybrid frame is subjected to strains ranging froln zero to

maximum tension strain. The minimum strain would be approximately zero,

’~min ~ 0 (3-53)

Equation 3-52 can therefore be used to estimate the maximum design strain in the bar for

a given period of the structure.

described below.

Step 1: Establish Material properties (Same as PRESSS Design Step 1)

Step 2: Obtain Design Loads (Mdcs) and Drifts (0des~ °/_~

Step 3: Estimate Frame Beam Dimensions

The PRESSS procedures specify the following two limits for beam dimensions

hg < in/3 (3-54)

bg > 0.3 h (3-55)

However, knowing that

lpu = ½ Ls for spans of equal length along the entire frame

= (average length of spans)/2 for spans of unequal length

Ls = span length (center-to-center of columns)

The following two non-dimensional parameters can be defined.

iterative design procedure.

that the strain (and not stress) in the post-tensioning tendon is checked to ensure that the

tendon would not yield.

The corresponding change in strain is:

PRESSS procedures.

If this condition (Eq. 3-66) is not satisfied, then increase the unbonded length of the PT

steel (qb = lpu/h).

Step 10: Calculate the Elongation and Required Unbonded Length of the Mild Steel Bar

In this step, the PRESSS procedures are modified to include the effect of bending strain

(~b,max). the contribution of additional effective unbonded length of bars dueto straining

in the bonded regions is also considered. The bar’s horizontal deformation (AX), axial

strain (ea), and bending strain (~b) should be calculated using the equations presented in

Section 2.3 as follows:

Let

Where,

~z" = tan-1/O~ / (3-112)

Growth in the unbonded length of the bar is expected to occur under high cyclic strain.

Raynor and Lehman [2002] studied the bond characteristics of bars grouted in light-

gauge metal ducts. A non-uniform strain distribution occurs at each end of the unbonded

region of the bar that penetrates into the bonded region of the bar. According to their

study, the elongation due to strain penetration is equivalent to the peak strain acting

uniformly over an equivalent additional unbonded length (Lua) on each end. The

additional equivalent debonded length can be calculated using the following equation

[Raynor, 2002]:

L"---a-~ = 0"81(f~u-f~Y) (3-113)do

Thus, the total unbonded bar length (Lot) is:

Lu,=L,u +2L.. (3-114)

The maximum total strain that the bar is subjected to is the sum of axial and bending

strains (~a×ial + ~b,m~x). As discussed earlier, the conservative approach proposed is to

ensure that the total strain is less than ~s,ma×, the maximum strain that the bar can be

subjected to basedon low-cycle fatigue tests.

We can then calculate eU,m~x (equation 2-111) and subtract it from es,m~x to obtain the

maximum allowable axial strain (earl).

Gall : Gs,max -- Gb,nmx (3-116)

To ensure satisfactory performance, the following condition must be met

Gox~l _< GatI (3-117)

However, since the actual effective unbonded length is L~t and not Lsu, the calculated

axial strain can be reduced by the ratio (Lsu/Lut).

3.5 Parametric Studies

The above dimensionless parameters were varied in an extensive parametric study

(approximately 1200 runs) involving an optimization process. The objective of the

optimization program was to ensure that the moment capacity of the section is greater

than Mdes and satisfying additional constraints discussed below.

The Microsoft EXCEL’s Solver feature was used to find the optimum solution by

changing HOes, m, and y subjected to following constraints:

(to achieve zero residual drift)

(to ensure that PT steel would not yield)

(Q =f{:/fro) (to meet ACI 318-02 section 18.4.2 requirements)

A designer can calculate the required areas of post-tensioning tendon (Ap) and mild steel

reinforcement (As) by utilizing Figures 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, and 3.9and using the following

procedures for a specified M~es, Odes, and Vs,m~x :

1. Specify d~ = Lpu/hg

73

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

2. Go to either one of Figures 3.14 through 17, determine ~2, and calculate fp,des

3. Go to Figure 3.4 or Figure 3.7, determineMaes , and calculate Ap

M des4. Go to Figure 3.6 or Figure 3.9, determine As2c,,ae~h~,f,y, and calculate As

It can be noticed from Figure 3.4 that the required area of PT tendon Ap increases as Odes

increases for a given do, Mdes, and Ss,ma~. On the other hand, Av decreases as

increases for a given do, Mae~, and Odes (Figure 3.7). The reverse is true for the area of the

mild steel reinforcement As.

The stress in the PT tendon fo,des at a specified design drift Odes increases as dO increases. It

also increases when the initial stress in the PT tendon fpi increases as shown in Figures

3.14 through 3.17.

The designer can also calculate the ratio of the PT moment to the total moment strength

co from Figure 3.5 and Figure 3.8. The relative area of the PT tendon to the beam’s cross

section 3’ can be calculated from Figures 3.10through 3.12. The relative location of the

neutral axis qdes can be calculated from Figure 3.13. It can be noticed from Figure 3.13

that rides increases as the compressive strength of the concrete f’c increases.

Design Examples

In order to validate, verify, and illustrate the effectiveness of the developed design charts

and simplified equations, a set of five design examples are considered. Each example

includes four separate calculation processes: the original PRESSS procedures, the

modified non-dimensional procedures, the developed non-dimensional charts, and

proposed simplified equations. A comparison and discussion of various solutions is then

given. It should be noted that )~s,des and )~’s,de~ values recommended in ACI T1.2-03 were

used in these exampes

The design parameters in this example are identical to the PRESSS example at the PCI

convention. However, the calculation steps are revised and corrected to achieve an

optimum solution.

was 0.65. However after several iterations of the steps shown here, the optimum solution

converged on a Mp,desiMdes ratio of 0.51.

Mp,des =- 0.51 Mdes = 630. ft-kips (Optimum solution after several iterations)

Ms,des = Mdes - Mp,des = 605 it-kips

Step 6: Estimate the Required Area of PT Tendon (Ap)

Assume initially that the compression force in the beam is located at 0.05hg (a = 0. lhg)

from the compression face. This assumption leads to:

Ap = MP’des

(0.45hg)f,y

630x12= 1.65 in2

(0.95-0.055) x 42 x 1.39 x 60

Step 8: Estimate the Neutral Axis Parameter at the Design Drift (rides)

The location of the neutral axis can be found using an initial assumption of a!hg -= 0.1 that

was made in Step 6. This assumption results in an initial value of Tides = 0.1/~1. However

after several iterations of the steps shown here, the optimum solution converged on a rides

value of 0.14.

Step 14: Calculate the Moment Strength of the section at Odes

Taking moments of both the PT and deformed reinforcement forces about the centroid of

4.3.1 Basic Solution Using PRESSS Procedure

The following is an iterative process that follows steps 1 through 15 based on initial

assumptions. For the sake of brevity, only the initial and final values of parameters are

given below.

Step 1: Establish Material properties and Design Information

See Table 4.5

Step 2:. Obtain Design Loads (Mdes) and Drifts (Odes %)

See Table 4.5

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

Step 6: Estimate the Required Area of PT Tendon (Ap)

Assume initially that the compression force in the beam is located at 0.05hg (a = 0. lhg)

from the compression face. This assumption leads to:

A _ Mp,des

P (0.45hg)fpy

375.0×12 = 1.59 in20.45× 26x 243

Step 7: Estimate the Required Area of Deformed Reinforcement (As)

(0.95-0.055) x 26 x 1.4 x 60

Step 8: Estimate the Neutral Axis Parameter at the Design Drift (rlaes)

The location of the neutral axis can be found using an initial assumption of a/h = 0.1 that

was made in Step 6. This assumption yields to an initial value of ~ldes = 0.1/~1. However

after several iterations of the steps shown here, the optimum solution converged on a

value of 0.15.

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

Please note that the PRESSS procedure recommends a Ls,des value of 1.35, but allows for

a more rational determination of this parameter. In this report, a )~s,de~ value of 1.4 is used

according to the provisions of section 3.3 of ACI T1.2-03.

Step 10: Calculate the Stress in the Compression Mild Steel Reinforcement

Please note that the PRESSS procedure recommends a Ls’,aes value of 1, but allows for a

more rational determination of this parameter. In this report, a )~s’,des value of 1.25 is used

Step 14: Calculate the Moment Strength of the section at 0d,s

Taking moments of both the PT and deformed reinforcement forces about the centroid of

the compression force yields:

4.4.1 Basic Solution Using PRESSS Procedure

The following is an iterative process that follows steps 1 through 15 based-on initial

assumptions. For the sake of brevity, only the initial and final values of parameters are

given below.

Step 1: Establish Material properties and Design Information

See Table 4.7

Step 2: Obtain Design Loads (Mdes) and Drifts (Odes %)

See Table 4.7

Step 3: Estimate Frame Beam Dimensions

hg <l,,= 23.67x12_94.5 in. OK3 3

bg > 0.3hg = 0.3 x 32 = 9.6 in. OK

Step 4: Establish Constants

Step 5: Determine the Proportion of the PT and Deformed Reinforcement Moment

Mp,des = 0.52 Mdes = 608.4 ft-kips (Optimum solution after several iterations)

Ms,des = Mdes - Mp,des = 561.6 fl-kips

140

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

Step 6: Estimate the Required Area of PT Tendon (Ap)

Assume initially that the compression force in the beam is located at 0.05hg (a = 0. lhg)

from the compression face. This assumption leads to:

Mp,des

(0.45hg)f,y

608.4 × 12= - 2.09 in2

0.45 × 32 × 243

Step 7: Estimate the Required Area of Deformed Reinforcement (A~)

Using the same assumption as in Step 6 such that:

(0.95 - ~)h g~s,aesf sy

573.3x12(0.95 - 0.055) x 32 x 1.4 x 60

= 2.8 in2

Step 8: Estimate the Neutral Axis Parameter at the Design Drift

The location of the neutral axis can be found using an initial assumption of a!hg = 0.1 that

was made in Step 6. This assumption yields to an initial value of rlde~ = 0.1/[~1. However

after several iterations of the steps shown here, the optimum solution converged on a ]]des

value o f 0.15.

r/a~ - = 0.15

Step 9: Calculate the Stress in the Tension Mild Steel Reinforcement

= 1.4 x 60 = 84 ksi

141

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

Please note that the PRESSS procedure recommends a Ls,des value of 1.35, but allows for

a more rational determination of this parameter. In this report, a )~s,des value of 1.4 is used

according to the provisions of section 3.3 of ACI T1.2-03.

Step 10: Calculate the Stress in the Compression Mild Steel Reinforcement

= 1.25 x 60 = 75 ksi

Please note that the PRESSS procedure recommends a ~s’,des value of 1, but allows for a

more rational determination of this parameter. In this report, a Ls’,aes value of 1.25 is used

according to the provisions of section 3.3 of ACI T1.2-03.

Step 11: Calculate the Stress and Elongation in the Pre-Stressing Tendonat 0d~s

then fpo = f~i = 175.5 ksi

~z~ =0.5x/~1 xr/~s

= 0.5x 0.75x 0.15 = 0.056

Step 14: Calculate the Moment Strength of the section at 0aes

Taking moments of both the PT and deformed reinforcement forces about the centroid of

the compression force yields:

Mv,ae, == 514.56 × 32(0.5 - 0.056)/12 = 609.2 ft-kips

= 237.88 x 32(1- 0.055 - 0.056)/12 = 563.9 ~-kips

= 237.88 x 32(0.055 - 0.056)/12 = - 0.64 ~-kips

Therefore the total moment strength can be dete~ined ~ follows

4.5.1 Basic Solution Using PRESSS Procedure

The following is an iterative process that follows steps 1 through 15 based on initial

assumptions. For the sake of brevity, only the initial and final values of parameters are

given below.

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

Step 6: Estimate the Required Area of PT Tendon (Ap)

Assume initially that the compression force in the beam is located at 0.05hg (a = 0. lhg)

from the compression face. This assumption leads to:

(0.45hg)fpy

144x12 = 0.72 in2= 0.45 x 22 x 243

Step 7: Estimate the Required Area of Deformed Reinforcement (As)

Using the same assumption as in Step 6 such that:

Ms,dos(0.95

144x12 = 1.04 in2- (0.95 - 0.055) x 22 x 1.4 x 60

Step 8: Estimate the Neutral Axis Parameter at the Design Drift (Tides)

The location of the neutral axis can be found using an initial assumption of a!lag = 0.1 that

was made in Step 6. This assumption yields to an initial value of rides = 0.1/131. However

after several iterations of the steps shown here, the optimum solution converged on a Tides

value of 0.13.

a.more rational determination of this parameter. In this report, a ~.s,des value of 1.4 is used

according to the provisions of section 3.3 of ACI T1.2-03.

Summary and Conclusions

The Unbonded Post-Tensioned frame with Damping (hybrid frame) performed very well

in the PRESSS research program. It formed one part of the structural framing in the

PRESSS Phase III experimental building that was tested at the University of California at

San Diego. The hybrid frame was one of a total of five different seismic structural

systems proposed in the PRESSS report. The hybrid frame system has an important

feature that allows the designer to eliminate residual drift after an earthquake. This

feature is not available in the framing systems recognized in the 1997 UBC. The PRESSS

report outlined a series of step-by-step design procedures for hybrid frames.-

In this report, a set of new dimensionless parameters to replace current dimensional

parameters in the PRESSS calculation process were developed. Proposals for

modifications to same PRESSS procedures were also made. Parametric studies based on

this new non-dimensional formulation of the PRESSS design procedures were performed.

A large number of optimization problems (approximately 1200) were solved to achieve

optimum solution in each case.

Based on the results of the parametric study, a complete set of charts with non-

dimensional parameters were generated and simplified design equations were

recommended. These charts and equations would enable designers to perform the design

in fewer number of steps, while affording them the opportunity to see how changing one

or more parameters would affect the design.

It was observed from a preliminary nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis of a 3-D model

of a hybrid frame system [Hawileh, 2003], that the mild steel bars in a hybrid frame

174

Conclusions or recommendations in this report are the opinions of the authors. PCI assumes no responsibility for the interpretation or application of the information contained herein.

exhibit significant inelastic and cyclic axial and bending strains. Once the gap at the

beam-column interface opens, relatively high levels of plastic strains develop in the mild

steel bar. This prompted a need for considering the low-cycle fatigue of the mild steel

bars including both the bending and axial strains. It should be noted that both the

PRESSS [Stanton and Nakaki, 2002] and National Institute of Standards and Technology

(NIST) [Cheok and Stone, 1994] test reports indicated bar fractures during cyclic testing.

A mild steel fracture criterion is therefore needed in the design procedure for hybrid

frames by controlling the total plastic strains in the mild steel bar below a maximum

value. In this study, a mild steel fracture criterion under combined axial and bending

strains is proposed based on the works of Mander (1994) and Liu (2001).

Mander and Panthaki (1994) studied the behavior of reinforcing steel bars under low-

cycle fatigue subjected to axial-strain reversals with strain amplitudes ranging from yield

to 6%. Liu (2001) studied the low-cycle fatigue behavior of steel bars subjected to

bending strain reversals with variable amplitudes.

The deformed geometry of the bar is needed to allow calculation of bending strains.

Therefore, it is important to determine the inelastically deformed shape of the reinforcing

bar at design drift. A series of FE analysis were performed to predict the inelastically

deformed shape of the bar. Six different model cases were solved using the FE model to

study the combined axial and bending behavior of the mild steel bar.

An equation for the deflected shape of the bar was derived from the FE model, and the

bending and axial strains of the bar were calculated based on the equations of sections 2.2

and 2.3.
