What does it mean for a beam to be connected to a shear wall

The bending moment outside the plane of the shear wall should be controlled.

When the shear wall limb.

When connecting with the floor beam in the out-of-plane direction, at least one of the following measures should be taken to reduce the adverse effect of the beam end moment on the wall:

1. A shear wall connected with the beam is arranged along the axis of the beam to resist the external bending moment of the wall limb plane;

2. When the shear wall connected with the axis direction of the beam cannot be arranged, it is advisable to set buttresses at the intersection of the wall and the beam. The buttress should be calculated to determine the cross-section and reinforcement;

3 When buttresses cannot be arranged, dark columns should be set at the intersection of the wall and the beam.

and it is advisable to determine the reinforcement according to the calculation;

4. If necessary, section steel can be set in the shear wall.

Explanation of the corresponding provisions:

The shear wall is characterized by large in-plane stiffness and bearing capacity, while out-of-plane stiffness and bearing capacity are relatively small. When the shear wall is connected with the beam in the out-of-plane direction, the out-of-plane bending moment of the wall limb will be caused, and the out-of-plane stiffness and bearing capacity of the wall are generally not checked. When the beam height is greater than 2 times the wall thickness, the bending moment at the beam end is not conducive to the safety of the wall outside the plane, so measures should be taken to ensure the safety of the shear wall outside the plane.

The measures listed in this article can increase the ability of the wall limb to resist the out-of-plane bending moment. In addition, the floor beams with small cross-sections can be designed as hinged or semi-rigid joints to reduce the plane bending moment of the wall limb. The hinged end or semi-rigid end can be realized by bending moment amplitude modulation or beam variable cross-section, and the bending moment in the beam span should be increased accordingly.

Hey duckling.

The meaning of the beam on the shear wall is that the dark column needs to be added to the shear wall, and the beam cannot be directly placed on the shear wall (the shear wall cannot be used as the support of the beam).

When the shear wall limb is connected with the floor beam in the out-of-plane direction, at least one of the following measures should be taken to reduce the adverse effect of the beam end moment on the wall

1. Set up a shear wall connected with the beam along the axis of the beam to resist the lateral bending moment of the wall limb flat against the attacker;

2. When the shear wall connected with the axis direction of the beam cannot be arranged, it is advisable to set up buttresses at the intersection of the wall and the beam, and the buttresses are calculated to determine the cross-section and match the tendons;

3. When the buttress cannot be arranged, the dark column should be set at the intersection of the wall and the beam, and the reinforcement should be determined according to the calculation;

4. If necessary, section steel can be set inside the shear wall.

In shear wall structures and frame-shear wall structures.

Connect wall limbs with wall limbs.

The beams of the wall limbs and frame columns are called connecting beams. Connecting beams generally have a small span and a large cross-section.

The stiffness of the wall connected to the connecting beam is very large. Generally under the action of wind load and ** load.

The internal forces of the connecting beams tend to be large. Furthermore.

in high-rise buildings.

Due to the uneven compression of the wall limbs at both ends of the connecting beam.

It will cause the vertical displacement difference at both ends of the connecting beam.

This will also create internal forces within the connecting beam. At the time of design.

Even if various measures are taken to reduce the internal force of the connecting beam.

As. Increase the width of the opening of the shear wall.

Open a horizontal seam in the middle of the connecting beam.

The stiffness of the connecting beam is reduced when calculating the internal forces and displacements.

Adjust the connecting beam of the layer with excessive local internal force, etc.

It is still difficult to make the design of the connecting beam meet the requirements.

The working and failure mechanism of the connecting beam.

Under wind load and ** load.

The limbs of the wall are bent and deformed.

Makes the connecting beam produce an angle.

As a result, the connecting beam generates internal forces. At the same time, the bending moment, shear force and axial force at the end of the connecting beam in turn reduce the internal force and deformation of the wall limb.

It has a certain restraining effect on the wall limbs.

Improved the stress state of the wall limbs. The failure of the connecting beams in the shear wall of high-rise buildings under horizontal load can be divided into two types.

i.e. brittle failure.

Shear failure. and ductile destruction.

Bending destruction. The connecting beam loses its bearing capacity in the event of brittle failure.

When shear failure occurs along the full height of the wall.

Each wall limb loses the restraining effect of the connecting beams on it.

will be a monolithic independent beam. This results in a much lower lateral stiffness of the structure.

The deformation increases. The bending moment of the wall limb increases.

and further increase the p-δ effect.

The vertical load creates additional bending moments due to horizontal displacement and can eventually lead to the collapse of the structure. When ductile failure occurs in the connecting beam.

Vertical cracks will appear at the end of the beam.

Micro-cracks appear in the tension zone.

Under the action of **, cross cracks will appear.

and form a plastic strand.

Reduced structural stiffness.

The deformation increases. Thus absorbing a large amount of ** energy.

At the same time, the bending moment and shear force can continue to be transmitted by the plastic hinge.

It has a certain restraining effect on the wall limbs.

Keep the shear wall stiff and strong enough. In the process.

The connecting beams play a role in energy dissipation.

to reduce the internal forces of the wall limbs.

It plays an important role in delaying the yield of wall limbs. But under the repeated action of **.

The cracks in the connecting beams will continue to grow and widen.

until the concrete is damaged by compression.

Summary. Hello dear! We're happy to answer for you!

The shear wall is below the beam, the reinforcement of the beam must pass through the reinforcement of the shear wall, the shear wall as a vertical member, its effect is the same as that of the frame column, the shear wall is used as the anchor support of the beam in the design and construction, and only the reinforcement of the beam and the wall is connected to form the overall force. Shear wall is also known as wind-resistant wall, seismic wall, or structural wall. Walls in houses or structures that are mainly subjected to horizontal and vertical loads (gravity) caused by wind loads or ** actions to prevent structural shear (shear) damage.

Also known as earthquake-resistant walls, they are generally made of reinforced concrete. It is divided into plane shear wall and cylinder shear wall. Plane shear walls are used in reinforced concrete frame structures, rising plate structures, and beamless floor systems.

In order to increase the stiffness, strength and collapse resistance of the structure, reinforced concrete shear walls can be cast in situ or prefabricated in some parts. The cast-in-situ shear wall is poured at the same time with the surrounding beams and columns, and the integrity is good. Cylinder shear wall is used in high-rise buildings, high-rise structures and suspension structures, surrounded by the partition wall of elevator room, stairwell, equipment and auxiliary room, the cylinder wall is cast-in-place reinforced concrete wall, and its stiffness and strength can bear greater horizontal load than the plane shear wall.

Hope mine can help you! Do you have any other questions?

Do you have any other questions?

The one at the top of the wall is the dark beam. The connecting beam is not necessarily on top. It may be in the middle of the wall, or it may be on the wall, or the top elevation of the connecting beam is above the elevation of the top of the slab on the previous floor. The main thing is to look at the design and use.

If it's hard to remember, then tell you one, the connecting beam must be above or below the door, window, opening.

It has been marked in the general design drawings. The role of beams has been considered in the structural design, such as L, LL, GL, TL, etc.

That's a connecting beam, but there are many kinds of connecting beams, and you can search for connecting beams and look at the definition.

The longer the wall, the greater the shear force, and the addition of connecting beams can strengthen the shear resistance of the structure.

The force of the connecting beam: it acts as the contact and support function of each piece of wall when it is subjected to the bending and shearing action generated by the horizontal force along the long direction of the wall, and when the wall is deformed by the horizontal force, the connecting beam is sheared;

The structural function of the connecting beam: divide the excessively long wall into several wall limbs of suitable length. Why?

For example, the cross-sectional size of the beam, the specification stipulates that the cross-sectional height of the beam should not be greater than 3 times the width, because the stability outside the plane is not guaranteed. Similarly, the length of the wall is the height of the wall section hw, and the thickness of the wall is the width of the wall section bw. The distinction between small limb walls, short limb walls, and long limb walls is part of the seismic conceptual design.

The landlord's spatial concept should be changed, and the beams are set from bottom to top almost layer by layer, so that the length of the wall is segmented, and the wall height is not shortened. The wall is an important vertical component, continuous from top to bottom to the foundation. (Except when the frame wall does not fall to the ground).

Wall beams: Composite components composed of reinforced concrete joists and masonry walls within the calculated height range on the beams include simply supported wall beams, continuous wall beams, and frame-supported wall beams.

A wall beam is a composition of a joist and a wall within its upper calculation range. In the calculation, the influence of the wall above the joist on the structure should be taken into account for the wall beam, and the favorable influence of the wall on the stiffness of the joist should be calculated. So, in real engineering.

The joist reinforcement calculated by the wall beam is less than the joist reinforcement without considering the role of the wall beam. However, the calculation of the wall beam is more cumbersome, and the specifications used are more complicated, and in the current design, it is not calculated according to the wall beam.

Shear wall: refers to the vertical component of the house structure made of reinforced concrete cast-in-situ, with a cross-sectional height-to-width ratio greater than 3; On the floor plan, you can see the walls located in two directions, vertical and horizontal, section by section. Its role is to bear the gravitational load of the house and the horizontal load of the house and the horizontal action of **. It is extremely resistant to horizontal action from all directions, hence the name "shear wall".

Shear wall is a general term for walls, various edge components, connecting beams, frame beams, dark beams, etc.
