Abstract

The feasibility of using vibration transfer rate as damage parameter is studied by simulation. The excitation mode, sensitive measuring point, structural adhesive damage identification and safety state evaluation of hidden frame glass curtain wall (HFGCW) are studied by experiment. The experimental results show that the accurate vibration spectrum can be obtained by using rubber hammer. The edge of glass plate is selected as the measuring point to obtain the accurate vibration transfer rate. The value of change rate of vibration transmissibility increases with the increase in damage degree of structural adhesive. A nondestructive testing method combining vibration transfer rate and discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is proposed, which can identify the degree of structural adhesive damage of HFGCW well. At the same time, the safety status evaluation model based on vibration transfer rate can evaluate the damage degree of structural adhesive of HFGCW.
