Seismic shear demand on wall segments of ductile coupled shear walls

Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2000
This paper presents the results of nonlinear dynamic analyses carried out on ductile coupled shear walls (CSWs) to investigate the seismic shear demand on wall segments. The objectives of the present study were to evaluate the dynamic amplification and establish a code-format force reduction factor for shear, applicable in Canada. The study considered

Shear Lag in Shear/Core Walls

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1996
Shear lag occurs not only in bridge decks and framed tubes, but also in shear/core walls. However, there have been relatively few studies on shear lag in wall structures. Moreover, most existing theories neglect shear lag in the webs and, although they are acceptable for bridge decks that normally have flanges wider than webs, they may not be ...

Analysis on Interruption and Plane Layout of Shear Wall for Frame-Shear Wall Structure with Top Fault Shear Wall

2009 International Conference on Information Management, Innovation Management and Industrial Engineering, 2009
According to the force-deformation characteristics of frame-shear wall structure, the calculation and analysis model of the "Style Box" type layout of frame-shear wall structure is advanced with the basic and simple arrangement of frame- shear wall structure.

Stiffened Coupled Shear Walls

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1989
A method of analysis (based on the continuum approach) is derived for investigating the beneficial effect of a stiffening beam, which may be positioned somewhere along the structural height, on laterally loaded coupled shear walls. It is shown that the incorporation of a stiffening beam into coupled shear walls will reduce considerably the maximum ...

Stiffened, Coupled Shear Walls

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1991
The paper presents a general continuum analysis of a pair of laterally loaded, coupled shear walls, supported either on rigid or elastic foundations, with either one or two stiffening beams at arbitrary positions on the height. Numerical studies are used to investigate the influence of the rigidities and locations of the stiffening beams on the lateral

Stiffening of Shear Walls

Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1974
In interacting shear wall and flat slab-column construction it is desirable to be able to evaluate the contribution of the columns to the stiffness of the lateral load resisting system. This paper presents a relatively simple method whereby this contribution can be determined, both in terms of the reduction in lateral displacement and the reduction in

Shear Walls Coupled by Cross Wall

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1983
An analysis is performed to study the behavior of two parallel but not colinear shear walls coupled by a cross wall subjected to lateral loading. It is shown that the cross wall essentially acts as a shear transfer medium. The effectiveness of coupling the two parallel walls depends on the height-to-width ratio of the cross wall and criteria for full ...
