Fragility Functions for Steel Plate Shear Walls

Earthquake 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.

Tests on Steel-Frame, Shear-Wall Structures

Journal of the Structural Division, 1971
Tests of three, four-story, single-bay, coupled shear-wall, steel-frame specimens were performed as part of a general investigation of the behavior of multistory structures. Each test specimen consisted of a reinforced concrete shear wall and a steel column stack, connected at four levels by rigidly framed steel beams.

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

STEEL SHEAR WALLS, BEHAVIOR, MODELING AND DESIGN

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
In recent years steel shear walls have become one of the more efficient lateral load resisting systems in tall buildings. The basic steel shear wall system consists of a steel plate welded to boundary steel columns and boundary steel beams. In some cases the boundary columns have been concrete‐filled steel tubes.

Elastic shear buckling of sinusoidally corrugated steel plate shear wall

Engineering Structures, 2016
Abstract This paper deals with elastic shear buckling behavior of infill panels in sinusoidally corrugated steel plate shear walls, and fitting equations predicting the shear buckling loads are presented. Firstly by using finite element analyses (FEA), the previous formulae for bending rigidities of sinusoidally corrugated plates are revised, then ...

Testing of steel sheathed cold-formed steel trussed shear walls

Thin-Walled Structures, 2015
Abstract This research is focused on the behavior of a novel cold-formed steel (CFS) shear wall system- steel sheathed cold-formed steel trussed shear wall (SSCFSTSW), which is different in skeleton configuration compared to conventional steel sheathed CFS framed shear wall. A test program was conducted on shear walls of various configurations.

Experimental study on shear performance of composite cold-formed ultra-thin-walled steel shear wall

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2020
Abstract Cold-formed ultra-thin-walled steel shear wall shows excellent performance. The house constructed using the cold-formed ultra-steel shear wall is composed of continuous single-layer walls, including the floor joints between wall segments. The wall is coordinated to deform through floor joints and the weak part is located at the floor joints.

Numerical investigation on ultimate shear strength of steel plate shear walls

Thin-Walled Structures, 2014
Abstract Ultimate shear strength of steel plate shear walls, SPSW, was conventionally computed as the sum of base shear supported by in-fill plate and boundary frame elements. The base shear supported by the in-fill plate was computed assuming that it was fully yielded after buckling whereas the base shear supported by the boundary frame elements was

Seismic resistance of steel plate shear walls

Engineering Structures, 1995
In 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 ...
