In this paper, the Timoshenko beam model (continuous system model) is originally adapted for dynamic analysis of steel plate shear wall (SPSW) systems. Dynamic characteristics first three modes are found by solving differential equation equivalent using transformation method. tabulated quick and practical calculation. With help characteristics, response spectrum such buildings performed. The co...

In this paper, a new approach for nonlinear numerical modelling of the reinforced concrete shear walls with consideration of bar-concrete interaction and shear deformation is proposed. Bar and concrete stress-strain relations, the bar-concrete interaction, the shear stress-strain relation and, also, their cyclic behavior including the strength degradation and stiffness degradation are adopted a...

Abstract The steel frame with portal plate shear wall unit presented here is a new structure by assembling the into through bolt connection. For study of resistance and bearing capacity structure, it necessary to conduct experimental research. Three specimens are made here, two geometric shapes case setting stiffeners not considered respectively. concentrated lateral load applied in test displa...

Abstract This study investigates the seismic performance of a composite structure comprising cold-formed steel and high-strength concrete. Four short shear walls composed concrete, namely, one specimen without diagonal bracing, with angle-steel two lattice were designed for testing their low cyclic loading. The cracking load, ultimate displacement, maximum horizontal bearing capacity, failure p...

In this study, the progressive collapse potential of seismically designed steel plate shear wall (SPSW) systems is investigated using the alternate path method, and their performances are compared with those of the conventional special moment frame (SMF) systems. Nonlinear static and dynamic analyses are conducted to follow the progressive collapse of the structures, and their ability of absorb...

The present study is concerned with the simultaneous optimization of the size of components and the arrangement of connections for performance-based seismic design of low-rise SPSWs. Design variables include the size of beams and columns, the thickness of the infill panels, the type of each beam-to-column connection and the type of each infill-to-boundary frame connection. The objective functio...

Composite couple beams are the concrete elements consisting of longitudinal bars and steel plate, therefore suitable for shear transferring in couple shear walls with arranged gates in its height. In this paper, after modeling couple beams with and without steel plates with F.E methods and calibration the models with experimental results, effects of parameters such as thickness, height, length ...
