The Analytical Study for Seismic Performance of Coupled Steel Plate Shear Wall

Abstract:

In the last several decades, coupled shear wall have become recognized as efficient lateral load resisting systems for high-rise structures, increasingly. Coupled shear walls give considerable lateral stiffness and strength as well as providing an architecturally practical structural system. In this paper, in order to observe seismic performance of coupled steel plate shear wall, models of previous study was verified, and coupled shear wall with steel plate was carried out with various parametric analysis. Parametric analysis was performed with various width of bay. As a result, model that aspect ratio of steel plate was close to 1 was the most structurally safe.
