Research on Static Performance of Composite Shear Wall with Insulation Layer

Abstract:

A new type of composite shear wall with insulation function is proposed, the inner layer of which is made of cement-base composite formworks produced by our research group in advance, and the outer layer of which is made of insulation formwork superposed with the cement formwork and insulation material. The space between the inner and the outer formwork is filled with concrete. Through the test of static loading in vertical and horizontal ways, bearing capacity, deformation properties, and failure modes of the composite shear wall, and cooperative work performance of the insulated formwork and concrete are studied. The static working performance of the composite shear wall with insulation is compared with that of the composite shear wall without insulation and the traditional shear wall, and some suggestions are put forward. The research results have proved that the sandwich-type composite shear wall with insulation is well-performed, which plays an important role in the future study and application.
