Seismic Evaluation of Brick–Wood Structure Houses Based on Large-Scale Shaking Table Tests

Taking the typical brick–wood structure houses in northern China as the research object, two 1/2-scale brick–wood structure house models with the same size and layout were tested using large-scale shaking table test technology. Model 1 has seismic measures of ring beams, structural columns, wall tie...

description Taking the typical brick–wood structure houses in northern China as the research object, two 1/2-scale brick–wood structure house models with the same size and layout were tested using large-scale shaking table test technology. Model 1 has seismic measures of ring beams, structural columns, wall tie bars, reinforced concrete lintels for doors and windows, and purlin bottom plates. Model 2 has the same structural layout, dimensions, and construction technical conditions as Model 1 but lacks the seismic measures of ring beams and structural columns as Model 1, and the other construction measures are the same. In the test, the Wenchuan record, EL-Centro record, and Lanzhou artificial record were selected to simulate the horizontal seismic action on the models. Through the analysis and comparison of the seismic damage process and seismic response characteristics of the two models, the results showed that horizontal shear failure was the main failure mode of single-story brick–wood houses, and the protruding gable wall parts of the crosswall were the weak points for seismic resistance. The seismic measures adopted in the test effectively improved the seismic performance of the houses, with Model 1 and Model 2 achieving the basic seismic fortification of intensity VIII and IX, respectively. The relevant research results presented in this paper clarify the seismic response law and seismic failure mechanism of brick–wood houses. Meanwhile, the corresponding seismic technical measures proposed based on these results have certain guiding significance for the construction of suburban or rural houses.
