Seismic resistance of steel plate shear walls
Engineering Structures, 1995In recent years, steel plate shear walls have been used in a number of tall buildings, mainly in Japan and North America, to resist lateral forces induced by wind and earthquakes. The perceived advantages of such shear walls, in seismic resistant structures, are enhanced stiffness, strength and ductility, stable hysteretic characteristics and a large ...

Steel Plate Shear Walls with Various Infill Plate Designs
Journal of Structural Engineering, 2009An experimental study was performed to investigate the structural capacity of steel plate walls with various infill plate designs. Five three-story steel plate shear walls with thin infill plates were tested. The parameters for this test were the connection method between the boundary frame and the infill plate (welded connection versus bolted ...

Beam‐attached steel plate shear walls
The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings, 2010SUMMARYConnecting to their surrounding beams and columns, unstiffened steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are widely used as an appropriate lateral resisting system for designing and retrofitting of structures against lateral loads. The base philosophy for the performance of such systems, post‐buckling tension field formation, needs strong enough boundary ...

The Gusset Plate Effect in Steel Plate Shear Wall Systems
Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures, 2012A steel plate shear wall dual system consists of a moment resisting frame plus thin infill shear panels. In the literature, it is stated that the ultimate lateral load bearing capacity of such a dual system can be evaluated by a simple addition of the discrete frame, brought about by the formation of plastic hinges and that of detached infill panel ...

Performance of steel-plate shear wall at high temperature
Journal of Structural Fire Engineering, 2020Purpose The high heat induced by fire can substantially decrease the load-bearing capacity, which is more critical in unprotected steel structures than concrete reinforced structures. One of the conventional steel structures is a steel-plate shear wall (SPSW) in which thin infill steel plates are used to resist against the lateral loads.

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2019
Abstract To examine the seismic performance of steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) and the corresponding steel plate reinforced concrete composite shear walls (SPCSWs), six 1:2 scale shear wall specimens (flat, vertical and horizontal corrugated SPSWs and the corresponding SPCSWs) are tested.

Flexural behavior of beams in steel plate shear walls
Steel and Composite Structures, 2017Steel plate shear wall (SPSW) system has been increasingly used for lateral loads resisting system since 1980s when the utilization of post-buckling strength of SPSW was realized. The structural response of SPSWs largely depends on the behavior of the surrounded beams.

Shear Analysis and Design of Ductile Steel Plate Walls
Journal of Structural Engineering, 2005During the last 3 decades interest has grown globally in the application of ductile steel plate walls (DSPWs) (or steel plate shear walls) for building lateral load resistance. The supporting theory has evolved from both analytical and experimental research conducted in several countries around the world.

Estimating fundamental periods of steel plate shear walls [PDF]
Engineering Structures, 2011 Abstract Seismic design codes generally specify empirical formulae to estimate the fundamental vibration periods of buildings. Currently, most building codes provide the same empirical formula to estimate the fundamental periods for steel plate shear walls and reinforced concrete shear walls.
