During the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan earthquake, numerous Japanese wooden historic buildings suffered serious damage. Most of these buildings are important cultural property in Taiwan, and their damages are related to the bamboo-mud-wall. For investigating the structural behavior of the bamboo-mud-wall, and establishing the fundamentals for a seismic assessment and strengthening in this study, totally 11 specimens including different construction, different mud additive, and different height/width ratio are tested under horizontally cyclic loading. The obtained failure mechanism and load-drift angle relation curves under cyclic loading are deeply discussed. According to the tests followings are observed: (1) For the wooden frame equipped with bracing, the failure mode and horizontal load resistance will be changed visibly when the nails have been drawn-out. (2) The maximum load for frame with cross bracing is about 3 times of wooden frame without bracing. (3) For the bamboo-mud-wall, the first damage mode is compression failure at the corner, and then the wall panel rotating. With the increase of displacement angle, the main damage mode is the shear cracks on the middle wall area. (4) The maximum load and the area covered by the P-θ envelop curve for bamboo-mud-wall are more than 3 times of wooden frame. (5) The maximum load of specimen with cement added has 35% higher than that of specimen with mud only. The crack amount and length of specimen with hemp fiber added is less than that of specimen with mud only. |
