Abstract
In this paper, an energy absorption wall with multi-stage destructive mechanism is experimentally studied. The wall is made by filling the gap between the alignment of energy absorption members. The energy absorption members are made by using hybrid fiber reinforced cementitious composites and reinforcement. In the test, shear test specimens are made with two energy absorption members, and cyclic load is applied. The results show that the energy absorption wall clearly gives the multi-stage destructive mechanism and also gives the ductile hysteresis curve. It is concluded that the energy absorption wall is applicable to the structural control.
