Seismic Performance Investigation of Different Kinds of Shear Walls

Abstract:

Shear wall systems are the most commonly used lateral load resisting systems in high seismic zones because they provide significant lateral strength, stiffness, and deformation capacity. The work further investigates the seismic performance of different kinds of shear walls. Classified and brief comments about the seismic performance and the exist drawback of different kinds of shear walls and its application are conducted. Lastly, some useful suggestions and a new structure are proposed for the further research.
