    698 On the nonlinear behaviour of reinforced concrete frames FJ. Veco Department of Civil Engineering, University of Toronto, 35 St. George Sireet, Toronto, Ont., Canada MSS 144 S, BaLopoutou School of Civil and Environment Engineering, Cornell University, Hollister Hall, Ithaca, NY 14853, U.S.A, Received August 2, 1989 Revised manuscript accepted March 13, 1990 ‘An experimental investigation is described in which a large-scale reinforced concrete plane frame is tested to study factors contributing to its nonlinear behaviour under short-term loading conditions. The test results indicate that frame behaviour can be significantly affected by second-order influences such as material nonlinearities, geometric nonlinearities, concrete shrinkage, tension stiffening eects, shear deformations, and membrane action. A nonlinear frame analysis procedure, previ- ‘ously developed taking these mechanisms into account, is shown to accurately predict most aspects of behaviour, including deflection response, ultimate load capacity, and failure mechansim, Aspects of the theoretical modelling which are in need fof further improvement are also identified Key words: analysis, behaviour, deformation, frame, large scale, nonlinear, reinforced concrete, strength, test Cet article décrit une étude expérimentale au cours de laquelle une ossature plane en béton armé pleine grandeur a && sou- mise & des essais en vue d'érudier les facteurs qui contribuent au comportement non linéaire lorsque I'ossature est soumise court terme a des charges monotoniques. Les résultats des esssis indiquent que le comportement de Vossature peut étre influence par des éléments de second ordre comme la non-linéarté des matériaux, les nonlinéarités géométriques, le retrait du béton, les effets du raidissement par la traction, les déformations causées par le cisaillement et le mouvement de la ‘membrane, Une méthode d'analyse non linéaire de Vossature, élaborée prévédemment afin de tei compte de ces méca- nismes, permet de prédire avec précision la plupart des caractéristiques du comportement, y compris le comportement en ‘déformation, la capacité de charge ultime et les mécanismes de défaillance. Des aspects de la modélisation théorique qui nécessitent des améliorations sont également énuméres. Mots clés (Can 3 Cv Eng 7, 698-704 (1950) 1.
