Fragility Functions for Steel Plate Shear Walls [PDF]

open access: possibleEarthquake Spectra, 2012
Fragility functions are developed to predict the method of repair required for steel plate shear walls damaged due to earthquake loading. The results of previous experimental studies are used to develop empirical relationships between damage states and story drift.

On the design of stiffeners in steel plate shear walls

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2009
Abstract This paper describes a numerical investigation to provide a practical design method for stiffening thin steel plate shear walls. The procedure considers one-sided transverse and longitudinal flat stiffeners located in various arrangements on shear plates which effectively divides the plate into subpanels and expands tension fields across the

Analysis of Thin-Steel-Plate Shear Walls

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1997
This plate panels in steel-plate shear walls buckle at very small load and the strength of the wall is based on the postbuckling strength of its plate panels. The plate panels can be modeled using equivalent truss elements in the diagonal tension direction.

Shear strength of steel plate reinforced concrete shear wall

Advances in Structural Engineering, 2020
This article investigates the shear strength of steel plate reinforced concrete shear wall under cyclic loads. A nonlinear three-dimensional finite element model in ABAQUS was developed and validated against published experimental results. Then, a parametric study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the parameters on the lateral capacity of ...

Lateral stiffness of steel plate shear walls

Science China Technological Sciences, 2013
The steel plate shear wall system has been used in a number of buildings as an innovative lateral force resistant system. Openings often exist in the steel plate shear walls due to the various functional requirements of structures. These openings may negatively impact the lateral stiffness of steel plate shear walls. Therefore, an experimental research

Natural periods of steel plate shear wall systems

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2009
Abstract In most seismic building codes, the design base acceleration is computed using the natural period of vibration of the structure. Design specifications provide empirical formula to estimate the fundamental natural period of a system. In this study a class of steel plate shear walls, that have uniform properties through their height, was ...

Shear resistance of buckling-restrained steel plate shear walls

International Journal of Steel Structures, 2017
The buckling-restrained steel plate shear walls (SPSWs), which consist of a steel plate sandwiched in between by two reinforced concrete (RC) cover plates, are known to be a robust and efficient lateral load-resisting system. Since the initial imperfection between the RC plates and the inner plate which is mainly caused by the fabrication and ...

Characteristics of the wall–frame interaction in steel plate shear walls

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2010
Abstract The nonlinear response of steel plate shear wall (SPSW) dual systems under lateral loading with regard to the interaction between the infill plates and frame members is studied. A number of SPSWs are numerically analyzed and the results are utilized to discuss (a) the influence of infill plates on the behavior of frames and (b) to evaluate ...

Behaviour of Steel Plate Shear Walls with Composite Columns

Structures Congress 2008, 2008
Research on conventional steel plate shear walls has developed recently to the point where their behaviour is reasonably well understood. However, the potential exists to design steel plate shear walls to take advantage of the benefits of composite columns and in this regard, considerably less information is available to designers.
