Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to research on seismic behavior of plate-column structure and popularize it in seismic region. With the method of creating structural models by three-dimensional solid element and pushover analysis and nonlinear time-history analysis of the two structures (plate-column structure and frame structure) with the same column layout and section size. With the pushover analysis, curves of base shear versus top drift were offered; plastic spectrum was obtained; the target displacement was calculated by it; failure mechanism was researched and earthquake responds of each phase were compared. With the nonlinear time-history analysis, time-history curves of base shear and of top drift, plastic hinges distribution and energy dissipation were offered. Drifts subjected to different earthquake waves and the results of pushover analysis were compared. The conclusion is brought forward that the plate-column structure designed suitably can be built in the second soil site seismic fortification areas of 7 degree.
