EXPERIMENTAL AND ANALYTICAL STUDY ON 2D RC FRAME WITH FERROCEMENT INFILL

N. Jayaramappa

Abstract :

 This paper presents an experimental investigation on the behaviour of a 2D single bay two storey reinforced concrete (RC) frame with ferrocement panel as infill. RC bare frame is cast in the laboratory to a scale down of 1:3.25; the dimension of frame is 2300 mm height and 1000 mm width. The cross section of beam and column are 100mm x 70 mm. Ferrocement panel is prepared for 1000 mm x 1000mm x 25mm, the panel was placed in to the bounding frame with cement mortar . The proposed model is subjected to lateral load at each storey level and their performance was assessed based on load carrying capacity and deflection. The present study includes the entire range of loading from the initial elastic stage until the ultimate failure stage. Analytical study was also conducted for the similar RC frame with ferrocement panel infill analytical results were obtained using finite element analysis software ETABS. Analytical results were compared with experimental results and it was found to compare well.
