Structural systems that combine reinforced concrete (RC) slab-column frames with moment resistingframes or shear walls find wide applications in zones of moderate and high seismicity. Due tocombination of lateral displacements imposed during earthquakes with gravity loads, slab-columnconnections are prone to exhibit punching shear failures. Traditionally, the required shear strength of slabcolumn connections is achieved by the use of drop panels or shear stud rails. The work outlined in thisproposal is to develop a highly damage tolerant and smart slab-column frame system through the use ofhigh-performance fiber reinforced cement composites (HPFRCCs) and wireless sensing technology. Thedevelopment of new materials (HPFRCC) and smart structure technologies (computationally rich wirelesssensors) have previously occurred in isolated research communities - this proposal is a first of its kind toexplore their combination so that an intelligent HPFRCC structure capable of sustaining large driftdemands and self-performance monitoring can be derived. The revolutionary features of the NEESinfrastructure offer exciting paths of exploration that will lead to a more profound investigation ofintelligent HPFRCC slab-column systems.In order to develop the proposed frame system, a series of HPFRCC flat slab specimens will be firsttested monotonically at the University of Michigan to optimize the HPFRCC material for this application.A total of six large-scale slab-column sub-assemblages will then be tested under simulated earthquakeloading. Four of these sub-assemblages will be bi-directionally loaded using the NEES-MAST facility atthe University of Minnesota. The MAST facility is ideally suited to this application as it can be used toload slab-column assemblages in a realistic manner to fully assess the shear capacity of HPFRCCconnections. The results of these tests will be used to develop models to predict the seismic behavior ofbuilding systems employing these advanced materials and design provisions for the proposed slab-columnconnections. To further enhance building safety, new technology in wireless sensors will be incorporatedinto the project to develop instruments that can self-detect and report structural damage due to seismicevents. The high resolution cameras available at the NEES-MAST facility will enable the closecorrelation of the wireless measurements with the accumulated damage, aiding in the development of adamage index appropriate for this type of connection. An algorithm for the developed damage index willbe embedded into smart wireless sensors to track the performance of the structural system, including selfidentification of damage. Construction operations design studies, through the use of discrete eventsimulation, will also be conducted to ensure the constructability of the proposed system.Intellectual Merit: The outcome of the proposed work will be a highly damage tolerant and smart slabcolumnframe system for use in seismic-resistant construction. This innovative system integrates the latestdevelopments in fiber cement-based materials and wireless sensing technology to deliver next-generationslab-column frames capable of 1) resisting extreme dynamic loads with outstanding damage tolerance,and 2) self-identifying structural damage. Hysteretic, damage, and design models, calibrated with resultsfrom large-scale multi-axial sub-assemblage tests, will be developed for the safe and optimum use of theproposed system. The experiments and associated models may ultimately lead to significant changes inthe design and construction of slab column frames in areas of moderate and high seismicity. Additionally,smart wireless sensors, with the capability of self-detecting structural damage, will be developed.Broader Impacts: Society will benefit from the immediate self-identification of damage of structures, asbuilding officials will be able to have access to the accumulated damage in a building immediately after aseismic event and will be able to make better informed decisions on the remaining life safety of thebuilding. The use of the NEESgrid capabilities will allow an array of access to this research, fromconstruction and design professionals to high school students. To encourage female and minority students to pursue graduate school careers in engineering, special activities are planned with the University of Michigan's Minorities in Engineering Program Office and the Women in Science and Engineering program such as including summer research activities for interested female or minority undergraduate students. The high-technology features of the NEES grid is a superb example of the power of interdisciplinary research and would motivate students to consider careers in Structural Engineering.
