One of the most imperfections of the steel shear wall is out of plane displacements that cause severe damage in both structural and non-structural elements. In this paper, the effects of shape-memory alloys on steel shear walls are investigated. First, a

Fragility Functions for Steel Plate Shear Walls [PDF]
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.

Steel slit shear walls with an efficient geometry
Thin-Walled Structures, 2021Abstract This paper presents the results of a study to improve the seismic behavior of steel shear walls with vertical slits. In this system, the steel plate segments between the slits behave as a series of flexural links, which provide a fairly ductile response without the need for heavy stiffening.

Tests on Steel-Frame, Shear-Wall Structures [PDF]
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.

Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2019
Reinforced concrete (RC) precast shear walls are extensively applied in practical engineering, owing to their fast construction speed. However, because of the transport conditions, RC precast shear walls have to be separated into small wall segments ...

Shear resistance of stiffened steel corrugated shear walls
Thin-Walled Structures, 2018Abstract In recent years, the steel corrugated shear walls (SCSWs) are widely used in building structures to serve as lateral force resistant members. For some practical engineering applications that the width of the infilled SCSWs in frame structure is much greater than its height, it is common to add vertical stiffening systems to the SCSWs, thus ...

Shear resistance of buckling-restrained steel plate shear walls
International Journal of Steel Structures, 2017The 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 ...

Lateral Stiffness of Steel Shear Wall Systems
Structures Congress 2008, 2008Lateral stiffness is an essential design parameter for steel shear wall systems. The research presented in this paper consisted of conducting nonlinear finite element analyses of steel shear wall systems to investigate lateral load resisting strength as well as lateral stiffness of this type of structural systems.

On the design of stiffeners in steel plate shear walls
Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2009Abstract 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, 1997This 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.
