Low cyclic loading tests were carried out for one precast two-way hollow slab shear wall with cast-in-situ boundary elements and one RC shear wall. The seismic performance of precast two-way hollow slab shear wall was analyzed. The test results indicated that macroscopic vertical cracks appeared along precast slab vertical holes of precast two-way hollow slab shear wall. The failure characteristics of the precast two-way hollow slab shear wall were significantly different from that of the reinforced concrete shear wall. Shear failure could be avoided and seismic performance of the new type shear wall was good.

Reinforced concrete (RC) shear wall component is a very important lateral force-resisting member which is widely used in China. Its seismic behavior has a great impact on the seismic performance of the overall structure. Damage of some RC shear wall structures under the earthquake is caused by the damage of shear wall components, So shear wall components are an essential seismic members. However, the test datum are not enough to study the performance of RC shear wall components, Therefore, Finite element simulation of RC shear wall components is performed by software ABAQUS in the paper. Through comparing with the finite element simulation and the test of load - displacement skeleton curve, failure mode and steel bar strain, the result shows that the finite element simulation can more accurately simulate the situation of the test, verifying the finite element simulation is the most important research tool besides test.

Indonesia is one of the countries in the earthquake region. Therefore, it is necessary to build earthquake-resistant buildings to reduce the risk of material and life losses. Reinforced Concrete (RC) shear walls is one of effective structure element to resist earthquake forces. Applying RC shear wall can effectively reduce the displacement and story-drift of the structure. This research aims to study the effect of shear wall location in symmetric medium-rise building due to seismic loading. The symmetric medium rise-building is analyzed for earthquake force by considering two types of structural system. i.e. Frame system and Dual system. First model is open frame structural system and other three models are dual type structural system. The frame with shear walls at core and centrally placed at exterior frames showed significant reduction more than 80% lateral displacement at the top of structure.

This research investigates the development of analytical fragility functions for reinforced concrete shear wall buildings in Australia. A building stock for the city of Melbourne is used in conducting an assessment of these types of structures. The assessment uses the best information available for selecting the building parameters applicable to the low-to-moderate seismic region, site soil class, expected earthquake ground motions, and site response. The capacity spectrum method is used to derive vulnerability functions for low-, mid-, and high-rise reinforced concrete shear wall buildings. Although there is a paucity of earthquake damage data available in Australia, some comparisons are made using the results from the fragility functions derived here to the damage data from the Newcastle earthquake in 1989.
