Abstract:
In this paper, the seismic behaviors of precast bridge columns connected with grouted corrugated-metal duct (GCMD) were investigated through the biaxial quasi-static experiment and numerical simulation. With a geometric scale ratio of 1:5, five specimens were fabricated, including four precast bridge columns connected with GCMD and one cast-in-place (CIP) bridge column. A finite element analysis model was also established by using OpenSees and was then calibrated by using the experimental results for parameter analysis. The results show the biaxial seismic performance of the precast bridge columns connected with GCMD was similar to the CIP bridge columns regarding ultimate bearing capacity and hysteresis energy, and further, that it could meet the design goal of equivalent performance. The seismic performance of the precast bridge columns connected with GCMD deteriorated more significantly under bi-directional load than under uni-directional load. A proper slenderness ratio (e.g., 7.0-10.0) and longitudinal reinforcement ratio could significantly improve the energy dissipation capacity and deformation capacity of the precast bridge columns, while the axial load ratio and concrete strength had little influence on the above properties. The research results could bring insights to the development of the seismic design of precast bridge columns connected with GCMD.
