Background: To study the flexural behaviors of the concrete shear walls with precast hollow slab, one cast in-situ reinforced concrete shear wall and two precast two-way hollow slab shear walls (PTHSWs) vertical joint were tested under low cyclic loading. Objective: The study showed that vertical joints of PTHSW are safe and reliable to ensure the effective connection between the assembly units. The ductility coefficient of shear wall is larger than 7, so this kind of shear wall has good ability of deformation especially under earthquake load. Results: The interface can effectively ensure the integral performance of PTHSWs and its effect on the flexural behaviors of PTHSWs could be ignored.

The composite shear wall system with permanent thermal-insulation wall form of glazed hollow bead is a new kind of energy-saving building. the experimental study on the seismic performance of composite shear wall structure was proposed. Through the tests of the walls with different shear-span ratio and axial compression ratio under vertical force and low cyclic horizontal load, the seismic behaviors of slitted shear walls under low cyclic load tests were studied. Through the expemental study, the calculation methods for load-bearing capacity of walls with different shear-span ratio were obtained. And then the laws for the energy dissipation and ductility feature were revealed. Besides, the comparison analysis were made on the seismic behaviors between composite shear walls and common shear walls.The study could provide a foundation for the designing evaluating on the performance for the new structure.

Lateral Stiffness Ratio

There are two typical seismic damage characteristics to the masonry building with frame shear wall structure at first two stories, and the lateral stiffness ratio of the third storey to the second storey is one of the key factors mostly affecting the seismic performance of this kind of building. However, some factors are not considered sufficiently in current Chinese seismic codes. According to the theory of performance-based seismic design, the seismic performance of this kind of structure is analyzed in this paper by taking time-history analysis on models which with different storey stiffness ratios. The results show that when the lateral stiffness ratio controlled in a reasonable range, the upper masonry deformation can be ensured in a range of elastic roughly, and the bottom frame can be guaranteed to have sufficient deformation and energy dissipation capacity. Finally, according to the seismic performance characteristics of masonry building with frame shear wall structure at first two stories, especially the characteristics under strong earthquakes, a method of simplified calculation model for the upper masonry is discussed in this paper.

Structure with replaceable devices is a type of earthquake resilient structure developed to restore the structure immediately after strong earthquakes. Current researches focus on one type of the replaceable device located in the structural part that is most likely to be damaged; however, plastic deformation would not be limited in a specific part but expand to other parts. To concentrate possible damage in shear wall structures, combined form of replaceable devices was introduced in this article. Based on previous studies, combined form of replaceable coupling beam and replaceable wall foot was used in a coupled shear wall. Influences of the dimension and location of the replaceable devices to the strength and stiffness of the shear wall were investigated through numerical modeling, which was verified by experimental data. Performance comparison between the shear walls with one type and combined form of replaceable devices and the conventional coupled shear wall was performed. In general, the shear wall with combined form of replaceable devices is shown to be better energy dissipated, and proper dimensions and locations of the replaceable devices should be determined.
