Finite Element Investigation of a Novel Cold-Formed Steel Shear Wall
BuildingsIn this paper, a novel corrugated steel sheet central sheathed cold-formed steel (CCS-CFS) shear wall is proposed. This shear wall can address the problems of low shear strength and ductility in conventional cold-formed steel (CFS) shear walls caused by ...

Investigation of Subpanel Size Effect on Behavior Factor of Stiffened Steel Plate Shear Wall [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019 Steel plate shear wall (SPSW) systems have been used in recent years in highly seismic areas to resist lateral loads. In general, a steel plate shear wall system consists of a steel plate wall, boundary columns, horizental floor beams and optional ...
