The paper deals with the experimental research and theoretical and numerical analysis on panels made with the construction technology known as Large Lightly Reinforced Concrete Walls–Wood Blocks System (LLRCW–WBS). The results of a series of experimental tests performed on real scale panels subjected to vertical load and cyclic horizontal actions on their plane are presented. Theoretical and numerical analysis have been carried out to understand the experimental results and providing calculation models suitable for the seismic design of LLRCW–WBS panels. Theoretical procedures and numerical models allow to determine the main mechanical parameters characterizing the seismic capacity of the panels, that are strength, deformation capacity, dissipative capacity and collapse modes. Results from theoretical and numerical analysis show a good correspondence with experimental results.

Abstract

The paper deals with the experimental research and theoretical and numerical analysis on panels made with the construction technology known as Large Lightly Reinforced Concrete Walls–Wood Blocks System (LLRCW–WBS). The results of a series of experimental tests performed on real scale panels subjected to vertical load and cyclic horizontal actions on their plane are presented. Theoretical and numerical analysis have been carried out to understand the experimental results and providing calculation models suitable for the seismic design of LLRCW–WBS panels. Theoretical procedures and numerical models allow to determine the main mechanical parameters characterizing the seismic capacity of the panels, that are strength, deformation capacity, dissipative capacity and collapse modes. Results from theoretical and numerical analysis show a good correspondence with experimental results.
