Book Synopsis Hysteretic Response of Steel-Clad, Wood-Framed Shear Walls Under Reverse-cyclic Loading by : Khoi Duc Mai
Download or read book Hysteretic Response of Steel-Clad, Wood-Framed Shear Walls Under Reverse-cyclic Loading written by Khoi Duc Mai. This book was released on 2016. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FEA models were developed and validated to predict shear strength and effective shear modulus of SCWF shear walls under monotonic loading. Moreover, the hysteretic behavior of SCWF shear walls was predicted using hysteretic behavior of sheathing-to-framing connector elements. Analyses were performed to assess the shear strength, stiffness, ductility, equivalent energy elastic plastic (EEEP), and hysteretic parameters of tested SCWF shear wall specimens. Experimental tests also provided the seismic design coefficients of SCWF shear walls, which are currently lacking in the building codes.
