Experiments and analyses to study the seismic response of reinforced concrete frame-wall structures with yielding columns

Experiments and analyses were performed to study the effect on lateral displacement response of two factors. These were the effects on drift response of (1) using slender walls in frames with yielding columns and (2) placing a structural hinge at the base of slender walls to reduce strength and stiffness requirements for the foundation.
