Abstract

The application of masonry buildings with frame and seismic-wall in the lower stories in the “5.12” Wenchuan earthquake disaster area was very extensive. The main damage characteristic of this kind of structure was summarized through field investigation where a large number of examples appeared. Overall, the seismic damage of the bottom frame structures can be summarized as the following: firstly, if the stiffness of frame shear wall stories is larger, the failure of underlayer is light but the upper masonry stories get seriously damaged; if the stiffness of upper masonry stories are larger, the underlayer gets seriously damaged but the failure of upper masonry stories are light. Secondly, the damage of wall is heavier than the column, the damage of column is heavier than the beam; the damage of column cap is heavier than column base, and the damage of corner column is heavier than inside column and side column. Thirdly, the force of transition layer is complex, and the wall is destroyed seriously. Fourthly, the destruction of the upper part of the bottom frame structure is similar to the structure of the multi-storey masonry structure.
