3.1 INTRODUCTION
Moment resistant ductile frame of reinforced concrete structure is designed for strength and
ductility. Strength related to the maximum capacity of the structural member to resist the
earthquake load, ductility related to the maximum deformation beyond the yield stress without
loss of strength. To prevent the failure during strong earthquake the column member is designed
stronger than the beam member it is called as strong column and weak beam concept.

This chapter describes the analysis and design of flexural member and column member using the
strong column and weak beam concept.

3.2 BEHAVIOR OF STRONG COLUMN & WEAK BEAM
3.2.1 GENERAL
During the strong earthquake the reinforced concrete structure is designed so it can provide the
energy dissipation as well as possible. The only method can be used to follows the requirement
above is strong column and weak beam design method.

The followings are the major aspect of the strong column and weak beam concept, as follows :
The overall structure is designed so it can develop inelastic structural behavior.
Column is designed stronger than beam it means during strong earthquake column member
remain elastic so it can provide stability and strength of the stories above.
The development of plastic hinge is forms at the end of beam, so the energy dissipation is
occurs in the plastic hinge.
To ensure the perfect energy dissipation at plastic hinge, plastic hinge region required special
reinforcement detailing (confinement) to improve ductility, energy absorption capacity and
perform inelasticity.

3.2.2 PLASTIC HINGE FORMATION
In the strong column and weak beam concept the beam is permitted to yields but the column
remains elastic. The behavior of reinforced concrete beam is more ductile than the reinforced
concrete column, so it is safer to design the location of plastic hinge forms at the end of beam
rather at the column.

The figure below shows the formation of plastic hinge at the end of reinforced concrete beam, as
follows :

3.2.3 DUCTILITY
In general meaning the ductility is the ability of the structural member to deform beyond its yield
stress several times without significant losses of its strength. As already known concrete
material is a brittle material so during the strong earthquake this material may fail suddenly.

To provide the ductility of the plastic hinge region which at the end of beam special reinforcement
detailing is required so during the earthquake the plastic hinge can deform beyond its yield stress
without failure.

3.3 STRENGTH REDUCTION FACTOR
The following is the strength reduction factor used in the reinforced concrete design based on the SNI
code, as follows :

TABLE 3.1 STRENGTH REDUCTION FACTORS SNI 03-2847-2002
NO ACTIONS
1 Flexure 0.80
2 Shear 0.75
3 Torsion 0.75
4 Axial Tension 0.80
5 Axial Compression Tie 0.65
6 Axial Compression Spiral 0.70
7 Bearing on Concrete 0.70

3.4 ANALYSIS & DESIGN OF FLEXURAL MEMBER
3.4.1 GENERAL
The design procedure of flexural member / beam using the strong column weak beam concept is
almost similar to the original reinforced concrete design.


D3 - 3
The followings are the major basic of flexural member design with strong column weak beam
concept, as follows :
Design of flexural reinforcement due to gravity load, earthquake load is similar to the original
reinforced concrete design.
The shear strength is calculated based on the probable moment resistance, not due to factored
shear force.
Special reinforcement detailing for longitudinal reinforcement, shear reinforcement,
confinement reinforcement and development length and splie of reinforcement.

3.4.2 LIMITATION OF DIMENSION
The followings are the minimum limits of reinforced concrete beam dimension, as follows :
Minimum beam width = 250 mm.
Maximum beam width = width of supporting column + 1.5 depth of beam.
Width to depth ratio 0.3.
Span to depth ratio 4 to prevent the deep beam action.
3.4.3 PROBABLE MOMENT RESISTANCE
During the strong earthquake the end of beam will yields, if the shear strength is not strong
enough the beam will fail due to shear which is brittle. Based on the requirement the shear design
must be done based on the probable moment resistance of the end of beam. The shear capacity of
the plastic hinge region must be over and above that corresponding flexural failure.

The probable moment resistance is calculated based on the following assumption, as follows :
The flexural reinforcement is enters into the strain hardening area.
The ratio of ultimate tensile strength to yield strength is taken as 1.25.
The strength reduction factor is taken as =1.0.

The figure below shows the free body diagram of calculation of probable moment resistance.

3.4.4 SHEAR DESIGN
The design shear force for flexure member is calculated based on the shear force due to gravity load
and reversible side sway bending moment (hinging of end of beam).

The figure below shows the shear force diagram due to gravity load and hinging at beam end, as

3.4.5 REINFORCEMENT DETAILING
A. General
The most important of the earthquake resistant design of reinforced concrete building is the strength
and the ductility. Strength provided by the maximum capacity of the member and ductility is
provided by the good reinforcement detailing especially at the plastic hinge region.
B. Longitudinal Reinforcement
The figure below shows the detailing requirement for longitudinal reinforcement.

FIGURE 3.4 DETAILING REQUIREMENT LONGITUDINAL REINFORCEMENTS

The followings are the requirements of longitudinal reinforcement detailing for flexural member, as
follows :

Minimum 2 bars are continuously top and bottom.
Minimum and maximum reinforcement ratio is :

The ductility is decrease if the amount of tensile reinforcement is increase so we need to
limit the reinforcement ratio.

The positive moment strength at the face of beam column must follows :

( ) ( )

M 5 . 0 M
[3.6]

At every section the positive and negative moment strength must follows :

( ) ( ) ( )

M 25 . 0 / M 25 . 0 M
( ) ( ) ( )
+

END n END n SPAN n
M 25 . 0 / M 25 . 0 M
[3.7]
C. Shear Reinforcement
Shear reinforcement must be designed to resist the seismic design force as explained before. Shear
reinforcement is designed due to shear force from the probable of plastic hinge development at
the end of member not used the factored shear force from lateral structural analysis.

The followings are the basic function of the shear reinforcement in the earthquake resistant building, as
follows :
Provide sufficient shear strength so full flexural strength can be developed.
Ensure the adequate rotation capacity in plastic hinge region.
Provide lateral support to longitudinal reinforcement.

D. Confinement Reinforcement
Confinement reinforcement is used to prevent the buckling of longitudinal reinforcement.

ACI divide to types of confinement reinforcement, as follows :
Hoop, hoop is a closed tie having seismic hook at one end.
Cross Tie, cross tie is continuous reinforcing bar having seismic hook at one end and hook not
less than 90
o
at other end.
The figure below shows the confinement reinforcement.

location where the plastic hinge developed.

3.5 ANALYSIS & DESIGN OF COLUMN MEMBER
3.5.1 GENERAL
The column member is a compression member which is has lower ductility than the flexural member.
Because it is more difficult to control the ductility in column member so the concept of strong
column weak beam is used. The column member is designed remain elastic due to strong
earthquake and the flexural member is permitted to yield with special confinement reinforcement to
ensure the ductility. During the earthquake the column member is the only structural member must
keep the stability of the structure.
3.5.2 LIMITATION OF DIMENSION
The followings are the minimum limits of reinforced concrete column dimension, as follows :
Minimum column dimension = 300 mm.
Ratio of shortest dimension to perpendicular dimension 0.4.

3.5.3 STRONG COLUMN WEAK BEAM CONCEPT
The column member must be designed to behave remain elastic due to earthquake. To ensure the
column member is still elastic so it must be designed stronger than the flexural member.

The strong column weak beam concept stipulate the design bending moment for column member is :

( )
beam col
M
5

M
[3.8]

where :
col
M =sum of moment at joint corresponding to the flexural strength of column at that joint
(sum of column bending strength above & below the beam)
beam
M =sum of moment at joint corresponding to the flexural strength of beam at that joint

The figure below shows the explanation of the equation above.

FIGURE 3.7 DESIGN MOMENT FOR STRONG COLUMN

So the design bending moment at joint of the corresponding column can be written, as follows :

( ) ( )
beam n n col n n
M M

[3.9]

where :

in original reinforced concrete design which is less than 1.0

The column must be designed also due to factored axial load which result in the lowest flexural
strength.

3.5.4 SHEAR DESIGN
The same with the flexural member the shear strength must be designed based on the probable
moment resistance at the plastic hinge region.

and the ductility. Strength provided by the maximum capacity of the member and ductility is
provided by the good reinforcement detailing especially at the plastic hinge region.

C. Shear Reinforcement

reinforcement is designed due to shear force from the probable of plastic hinge development at
the end of member but shall not less than the factored shear force from lateral structural
analysis.

splice.
Welded splice / mechanical connector can be used at any section, used for alternate
longitudinal reinforcement.

FIGURE 3.10 SPLICE OF LONGITUDINAL REINFORCEMENT

3.6 ANALYSIS & DESIGN OF JOINT
3.6.1 GENERAL
The most critical location of the structural strength is the joint between beam and column. Due to the
development of plastic hinge at the end of beam the joint will suffer to the shear force acting at the
effective area of joint. The joint must has enough shear strength to resist this force.

Minimum dimension of column parallel to the longitudinal reinforcement of beam is taken as :

20
[3.15]

3.6.2 HORIZONTAL SHEAR FORCE
Horizontal shear force at the joint is calculated based on the probable moment resistance at the end
of beam (M
pr
is calculated with 1.25 f
y
and =1.0).


D3 - 14
The figure below shows the free body diagram of joint.

FIGURE 3.11 FREE BODY OF JOINT

The horizontal force is calculated, as follows :

V C T V + =
[3.16]

where :
V
uh

r
=tensile force of longitudinal reinforcement (right side)
C

u
=shear force of column

3.6.3 SHEAR STRENGTH OF JOINT
The horizontal shear force as above must be less than the shear strength of the joint, as follows :

TABLE 3.2 SHEAR STRENGTH OF JOINT
CONDITION SI
Confined on all faces of beam
j c n
A ' f 70 . 1 V =

A
j
=effective area of joint (parallel to the reinforcement generate shear)

For light weight concrete the factor 0.75 is applied.

The strength reduction factor is taken as = 0.85.

The effective joint width is taken as the minimum of :

h b+
x 2 b+
[3.17]

where:
b =beam width perpendicular to the shear
h =dimension of column parallel to the shear
The effective area of joint is shown in the following figure.

FIGURE 3.12 EFFECTIVE AREA OF JOINT

The strength of the joint based on the test result is just provided by the concrete, it is not too
sensitive to the amount of transverse reinforcement at joint. If the factored shear force is bigger
than the shear strength then just increase the column size / increase the beam width.

The column dimension parallel to the beam reinforcement which is generate shear force at joint
must not less than 20 x maximum diameter of longitudinal reinforcement of beam.


D3 - 16
A. General
The detailing of reinforcement in the joint also very important because this area is the critical section
during earthquake.

The longitudinal reinforcement of beam can be anchored to the column with standard 90
o
hook. There
is small different with the original reinforced concrete design which is in the l
