Steel plate reinforced concrete (SPRC) shear wall consists of steel plate encased in the concrete, in which the material advantages of both concrete and steel are utilized. The lateral resistance and deformation capacity of the shear wall are greatly improved. This paper investigates the deformation capacity of the SPRC shear wall under cyclic loads. A nonlinear 3-D finite element model in ABAQUS was developed and validated against published experimental results. Then, a parametric study was conducted to obtain the yield and ultimate rotation of SPRC shear walls with flexural failure. By statistical analyses, formulas for the yield and ultimate rotation of SPRC shear wall were proposed.

The behaviour under cyclic loading of unstiffened steel plate shear wall panels at their connection to the bounding beams and columns was investigated on full-size panel corner details. Four different infill panel connection details were tested to examine and compare their response to quasi-static cyclic loading. The load versus displacement response of the details showed gradual and stable deterioration at higher loads. The formation of tears in the connection details did not result in a loss of load-carrying capacity. In addition to the experimental program, a finite element model was developed to model the behaviour of one of the infill plate corner connection specimens. Results from the analysis showed that the finite element method can be used to obtain the load versus displacement behaviour of an infill panel-to-boundary member arrangement.Key words: cyclic loading, hysteresis, shear wall, steel, welded connection.

When steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are fitted into a long-span truss system, horizontal and vertical deformation should both be considered to evaluate the seismic performance of the structure. Numerical analysis is conducted to study the seismic performance of stiffened steel plate shear wall with opening subject to horizontal and vertical loading respectively based on a project. Results of the analysis indicate that stress distribution and deformation patterns of SPSW with opening are quite similar under horizontal and vertical loading. Stiffeners around the opening should be stretched to full height or width of the SPSW and strengthened by using larger thickness or width. The grids at the four corners of the opening are recommended to be further strengthened by additional stiffeners. SPSW with opening exhibits good hysteretic performance and energy dissipation in both loading directions.

This paper examines the behavior of reinforced concrete shear wall buildings subjected to strong earthquake ground motions, with a focus on collapse performance. The effect of varying the number of stories, shear wall and boundary element dimensions, and reinforcement detailing on the seismic collapse fragility is investigated. The buildings are seismically designed based on the ASCE 7-10 and ACI 318-14 codes with additional provisions for capacity design and dynamic amplification. The shear walls are modeled using the shear-flexure interaction multiple vertical line element model with nonlinear hysteretic material models. Incremental dynamic analysis is performed to simulate the structural collapse of the two-dimensional building models subjected to the FEMA-P695 set of far field recorded ground motions scaled to increasing intensity values. For each building, a lognormal collapse fragility curve is fitted to the results. A collapse assessment of the studied buildings shows how the seismic performance is significantly affected by the varied parameters.

AbstractIn this study, the lateral resistances of mass timber shear walls were investigated for seismic design. The lateral resistances were predicted by kinematic models with mechanical properties of connectors, and compared with experimental data. Four out of 7 shear wall specimens consisted of a single Ply-lam panel and withdrawal-type connectors. Three out of 7 shear wall specimens consisted of two panels made by dividing a single panel in half. The divided panels were connected by 2 or 4 connectors like a single panel before being divided. The applied vertical load was 0, 24, or 120 kN, and the number of connectors for connecting the Ply-lam wall-to-floor was 2 or 4. As a result, the tested data were 6.3 to 52.7% higher than the predicted value by kinematic models, and it means that the lateral resistance can be designed by the behavior of the connector, and the prediction will be safe. The effects of wall-to-wall connectors, wall-to-floor connectors and vertical loads on the shear wall were analyzed with the experimental data.

In order to discuss the effect of different concrete strength on the seismic behavior of the L-shape steel reinforced concrete (SRC) short-pier shear wall , this article analyze three L-shape steel reinforced concrete short-pier shear walls of different concrete strength with the numerical simulation software ABAQUS, revealing the effects of concrete strength on the walls seismic behavior. The results of the study show that the concrete strength obviously influence the seismic performance. With the concrete strength grade rise, the bearing capacity of the shear wall becomes large, the ductility becomes low, the pinch shrinkage effect of the hysteresis loop becomes more obvious.

Four test pieces with different steel plate center-to-center distances and reinforcement ratios are subjected to low-cycle repeat quasistatic loading to optimize properties as failure mode, hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, energy dissipation parameters, strength parameters, and seismic performance of high-strength concrete low-rise shear walls. The embedded steel plates are shown to effectively restrict wall crack propagation, enhance the overall steel ratio, and improve the failure mode of the wall while reducing the degree of brittle failure. Under the same conditions, increasing the spacing between the steel plates in the steel plate concrete shear wall can effectively preserve the horizontal bearing capacity of the shear wall under an ultimate load. The embedded steel plates perform better than concealed bracing in delaying stiffness degeneration in the low-rise shear walls, thus safeguarding their long-term bearing capacity. The results presented here may provide a workable basis for shear wall design optimization.

The Future

Considering the increase in the current construction process and the future needs of Iran, the necessity to use high-rise buildings for reduction in urbanization costs and optimal use of land will be inevitable in the future. The performance of steel plate shear wall system as a modern global system, which has an effective application in high-rise buildings and also brings economic benefits compared to previous systems, is evaluated in this study. Steel Plate Shear Walls (SPSW) are a new type of system resistant to wind and earthquake lateral loads, which dates back to the 1970s. In this research, eight samples of shear wall with various stiffening arrangements and sections with ST37 and ST52 alloys are modeled. To evaluate the nonlinear dynamic analysis, the samples are subjected to the San Fernando earthquake force and are modeled and analyzed by ABAQUS software based on the finite element theory. The results of analyzing the samples indicate better performance of the system with stiffener in both vertical and horizontal directions. Also, the use of sections with ST52 alloy has improved the performance of the shear wall by approximately 40%.
