Performance Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Structural Walls for Seismic Loads
The performance of each building was evaluated by calculating the confidence level. The results showed a good performance of RC shear wall buildings designed by current provisions. As a result, the buildings were redesigned using higher R-values, and the performance evaluation procedure was …

Cracking of reinforced concrete structural walls subjected to cyclic loading
… tools for predicting the behavior of concrete structures is the lack of comprehensive and dense test data from more realistic experiments. The expression “comprehensive and dense” is being used to describe the collection of full-field strains, deformations, and other test data. The …

Experimental investigation of the response of reinforced concrete structural walls subjected to static and dynamic loading
… was to investigate the hysteretic response of reinforced-concrete (R/C) structural walls that are susceptible to shear failure after flexural yielding. The investigation was divided into an experimental and an analytical phase. There were three main objectives in the experimental phase: to …

Effects of web reinforcement discontinuities on the seismic response of structural walls
… web reinforcement caused severe damage in structural walls during strong ground motion. To test this hypothesis, six small-scale reinforced concrete structural walls were tested under lateral displacement reversals. Test variables included the presence of web longitudinal reinforcement …

Performance-Based Analysis of a Reinforced Concrete Shear Wall Building
<p>PERFORMANCE-BASED ANALYSIS OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE SHEAR WALL BUILDING</p> <p>Garrett Richard Hagen</p> <p>In this thesis, a special reinforced concrete shear wall building was designed per ASCE 7-05, and then the performance was investigated using the four analysis procedures outlined in ASCE …

Detailing for compression in reinforced concrete wall boundary elements: experiments, simulations, and design recommendations
Reinforced concrete structural walls are one of the most common lateral force-resisting systems in buildings located in high seismicity regions. Walled structures are expected to provide significant strength and ductility under cyclic earthquake loading. In part, this expectation is based on the …
