Effect of stiffeners on steel plate shear wall systems
Steel and Composite Structures, 2016Stiffeners have widely been used in lateral load resisting systems to improve the buckling stability of shear panels in steel frames. However, due to major differences between plate girders and steel plate shear walls (SPSWs), use of plate girder equations often leads to uneconomical and, in some cases, incorrect design of stiffeners. Hence, this paper

Development of Ring-Shaped Steel Plate Shear Walls
Structures Congress 2013, 2013Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are an attractive option for seismic lateral load resisting systems for both new and retrofit construction. However, the current approach to SPSWs in the U.S. typically uses very thin web plates, large boundary elements, and requires costly moment connections.

Plastic Analysis and Design of Steel Plate Shear Walls
Journal of Structural Engineering, 2003A revised procedure for the design of steel plate shear walls is proposed. In this procedure the thickness of the infill plate is found using equations that are derived from the plastic analysis of the strip model, which is an accepted model for the representation of steel plate shear walls.

Cyclic analyses of corrugated steel plate shear walls
The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings, 2017SummaryCorrugated steel plate shear wall (CoSPSW), which consists of a steel boundary frame and a corrugated steel wall panel with the corrugation in the horizontal or vertical direction, is a new type of lateral load‐resisting system in the family of steel plate shear walls.

Seismic performance of steel plate shear walls structures
Pollack Periodica, 2011The steel plate shear wall systems have some advantages in resisting seismic forces. Among the most important are the good dissipation capacity and initial stiffness. Unfortunately, there are no significant applications of this new structural system in Europe, partly due to the lack of design provisions in the seismic code EN1998-1. The paper addresses

Ductile steel plate shear walls with PEC columns [PDF]
, 2011 The behavior of steel plate shear walls under the effects of lateral loads depends on the stiffness of the surrounding frame members. Previous research has quantified the minimum required stiffness of columns in the middle stories of steel plate shear wall systems.

Hysteretic analysis of thin steel plate shear walls
International Journal of Steel Structures, 2013Thin steel plate shear walls (TSPSWs) are especially concerned due to the economic factor and excellent energy dissipation capacity. TSPSWs commonly define as steel plate with height-to-thickness ratio over 300. The post-buckling capacity, deformability and energy dissipation capacity of TSPSWs are now accepted by structural engineers.

Thin steel plate shear walls behavior and analysis
Thin-Walled Structures, 1998Abstract Steel plate shear walls have been used in buildings in North America and Japan. Until recently, the design practice has been to limit the strength of the wall to the buckling strength of the plate. The post-buckling strength of thin plates subjected to shear has been recognized for more than 60 years, since it was outlined by Wagner in the ...

Seismic Analysis and Design of Steel Plate Shear Walls
2009A nonlinear finite element model was developed to study the behaviour of unstiffened steel plate shear walls. The model was validated using the results from quasi-static and dynamic experimental programs. With the validated finite element model, the performance of 4-storey and 8-storey Type D (ductile) and Type LD (limited-ductility) steel plate shear ...
