Coupled Wall Systems

Coupling beams resist lateral loads efficiently is well known in coupled wall systems. In many cases, geometric limits result in coupling beams that are deep in relation to their clear span. Coupling beams with small depth-to-span ratio shall be reinforced with two intersecting groups of diagonally placed bars symmetrical along the mid-span. It's always hard to optimize construction projects. This paper used the finite element software (Abaqus) to analysis and simulate the nonlinear behavior of a new reinforcement called head bar and compared the results to the current standards.

Critical Aspects

The efficiency of coupled wall systems to resist lateral loads is well known. In order for the desired behavior of the coupled wall system to be attained, the coupling beams must be sufficiently strong and stiff. The coupling beams, however, must also yield before the wall piers, behave in a ductile manner, and exhibit significant energy-absorbing characteristics. This paper reviews the current state of the art for the design of conventional reinforced concrete, diagonally reinforced concrete, steel, and composite steel-concrete coupling beams. Although not exhaustive, critical aspects of the design of these systems are presented.
