36、TION OF CYCLING METHODX2.1 Test Method A Versus Test Method BX2.1.1 Test Method A:X2.1.1.1 Test MethodAis a sequential phased displacementpattern that exhibits decay cycles between the steps in theloading pattern. These decay cycles provide information onwhether there is a lower bound in displacemen

37、t required toproduce hysteretic energy dissipation (1).5An example wherea lower bound displacement causing hysteretic energy dissipa-tion may occur would be a bolted connection through anover-drilled hole.X2.1.1.2 Test Method A is based on Ref (2), which wasdeveloped by the Structural Engineers Asso

38、ciation of SouthernCalifornia (SEAOSC) to test wood or steel framed shear wallsfor earthquake resistance. The Ref (2) is currently not beingmaintained. There is a considerable breadth of information andvast databases on walls tested under Ref (2). For the purposesof acceptance testing it would be pe

39、rmissible to correlate theresults of the two test methods.X2.1.2 Test Method B:X2.1.2.1 The cyclic protocol for Test Method B was devel-oped for ISO 16670, a method for testing mechanically fas-tened timber joints. The background for this standard is givenin Ref (3-6), which indicates that a unique

40、cyclic displacementor loading history will always be a compromise, but one that isconservative for most practical cases should be selected. TheTest Method B test protocol is intended to produce data thatsufficiently describe elastic and inelastic cyclic properties; andtypical failure mode that is ex

41、pected in earthquake loading.X2.1.3 Selection of Test Method A Versus Test Method B:X2.1.3.1 Test Method A may be applicable to systems whenFME is the yield limit state or for testing slack systems todetermine a lower bound displacement causing hystereticenergy dissipation. Test Method B is a ramped

42、 displacementphase that bases the cycles on the percentage of an ultimatedisplacement determined through static tests. Test Method Bmay be more applicable to systems that exhibit linear elasticbehavior where FME is the strength limit state. If the ratio of5The boldface numbers in parentheses refer t

Both test methods are intended to generate similardisplacement amplitudes in order to obtain similar number ofpoints in the envelope curves. The difference is the number ofcycles

44、in each phase (step).X2.2 Test Method CX2.2.1 Test Method C (CUREE protocol) is the latestaddition to the family of cyclic test protocols. It was developedbased on the statistical analysis of seismic demands onlight-frame buildings representative of California (in particularLos Angeles) conditions.

45、The CUREE basic loading history isa realistic and conservative representation of the cyclic defor-mation history to which a component of a wood structure likelyis subjected in earthquakes (7, 8). At relatively large deforma-tions (primary cycles exceeding an amplitude of 0.4 D), theamplitude of the

46、primary cycles increases by large steps. Theselarge steps are based on statistics of inelastic time historyresponses. If the purpose of the experiment is acceptancetesting, then it is permissible to reduce the step size of theprimary cycles with large amplitudes. Smaller step sizes closeto failure m

47、ay result in a larger capacity (largest amplitude atwhich the acceptance criteria are met), even though they willresult in larger cumulative damage. The reason is that the largestep sizes of the basic loading history permit evaluation ofacceptance only at discrete and large amplitude intervals. This

48、standard permits a reduction in step size only for phases inwhich the amplitude of the primary cycle exceeds D. In thatregime the amplitude the primary cycle may be increased byaD, with a to be chosen by the user, but a #0.5.X2.2.2 The reference deformation, D, is a measure of thedeformation capacit

49、y (Du) of the specimen when subjected tothe cyclic loading history. It is used to control the loadinghistory, and therefore needs to be estimated prior to the test.The estimate can be based on previous experience, the resultsof a monotonic test, or a consensus value that may prove to beuseful for comparing tests of different details or configurations.In CUREE Project (7), the following guidelines were used:X2.2.2.1 Perform a monotonic test, which provides data onthe monotonic deformation capacity, Dm. This capacity isdefined as the deformation at which the applied load drops,
