Numerical Analyses of Axial Load Effect on Shear Strength of Concrete and Gypsum Composite Walls

Article Preview

Abstract:

Gypsum walls are a green product that helps to save energy and protect the environment. This paper numerically investigates the effect of axial load on shear strength of glass fiber reinforced gypsum (GFRG) walls fully or partially filled with concrete in the hollow cores. The conclusion drawn in this paper is general and applicable to other kinds of walls.
