摘要：This paper describes an analytical investigation on a reinforced concrete lateral load resisting structural system comprising a pin-supported (base-rocking) shear wall coupled with a moment frame on 1 or both sides of the wall. Yielding dampers are used to provide supplemental energy dissipation through the relative displacements at the vertical connections between the wall and the frames. The study extends a previous linear-elastic model for pin-supported wall-frame structures by including the effects of the dampers. A closed-form solution of the lateral load behavior of the structure is derived by approximating the discrete wall-frame-damper interactions with distributed (ie, continuous) properties. The validity of the model is verified by comparing the closed-form results with computational models using OpenSees program. Then, a parametric analysis is conducted to investigate the effects of the wall, frame, and damper stiffness on the behavior of the structure. It is found that the damper stiffness significantly affects the distribution of shear forces and bending moments over the wall height. Finally, the performance-based plastic design approach extended to the wall-frame-damper system is proposed. Case studies are carried out to design 2 damped pin-supported wall-frame structures using the proposed approach. Nonlinear dynamic time-history analyses are conducted to verify the effectiveness of this method. Results indicate that the designed structures can achieve the performance level with the story drift ratios less than target values, and weak-story failure mechanism is not observed. The approach can be used in engineering applications.
