摘要: This paper presents an experimental program to investigate the effects of cross-sectional shape on seismic performance irregularly shaped reinforced concrete (RC) columns. Five groups specimens that were one-quarter typical columns a prototype medium-rise building tested failure using shaking table. The loading procedure was successively increasing peak ground acceleration until test structure collapsed. designed with same cross-section area but different flange width and thickness. response characteristics all such as drift capacity, energy absorption capacity mechanisms each specimen group are evaluated, compared discussed in detail. Based current data, design recommendation is provided assist engineers designing
