Shear wall is the main component that resists the lateral force for high-rise buildings. With the rapid development of high-rise buildings, especially the super high-rise buildings, requirements for seismic performance of shear walls have become more sophisticated. This introduction summarizes the commonly used in embedded development and existing problems of steel plate shear wall, which are stiffened steel plate shear wall, non-stiffened steel plate shear wall, composite steel plate shear wall, preventing buckling of steel plate shear wall and low yield point steel plate shear wall.

Shear wall is the main component that resists the lateral force for high-rise buildings. With the rapid development of high-rise buildings, especially the super high-rise buildings, requirements for seismic performance of shear walls have become more sophisticated. The steel plate concrete composite shear wall shows good seismic performance. It has made rapid development through the research of seismic performance in the way of seismic design to the practical engineering application of steel plate concrete composite shear wall. Recent research situation and prospect of composite shear wall around the world have been introduced in this paper.

<p>Segmental bridge construction combines the advantages of prefabrication, for example the reduction of construction time and very high product quality, with those of common bridge erecting methods. Short precast segments are assembled and prestressed to form the complete superstructure. New methods divide these segments into prefabricated elements to create new lighter versions of the segments. For this to work, new joint types must be developed which can ensure the force transfer between the segments. In this paper, several methods, including a new concept for joining thin-walled pre-fabricated elements, are described. Push-off tests with a constant lateral force were carried out to assess the shear strength and deformation behaviour. The main parameters were the joint type (wet joints: plain, grooved, keyed; dry joints), the mortar type, and the level of lateral force. In this paper, the test results are presented and recalculations with a design code are shown.</p>

The current edition of Eurocode 8 does not cover the design of the Cold-Formed steel (CFS) building structures under the seismic design condition. As part of the revision process of Euro-code 8 to reflect the outcomes of extensive research carried out in the past decade, University of Naples “Federico II” is involved in the validation of existing seismic design criteria and development of new rules for the design of CFS systems. In particular, different types of Lateral Force Resisting System (LFRS) are analyzed that can be listed in the second generation of Eurocode 8. The investigated LFRS’s include CFS strap braced walls and CFS shear walls with steel sheets, wood, or gypsum sheathing. This paper provides the background information on the research works and the reference design standards, already being used in some parts of the world, which formed the basis of design criteria for these LFRS systems. The design criteria for the LFRS-s common to CFS buildings would include rules necessary for ensuring the dissipative behavior, appropriate values of the behavior factor, guidelines to predict the design strength, geometrical and mechanical limitations.

Considering the increase in the current construction process and the future needs of Iran, the necessity to use high-rise buildings for reduction in urbanization costs and optimal use of land will be inevitable in the future. The performance of steel plate shear wall system as a modern global system, which has an effective application in high-rise buildings and also brings economic benefits compared to previous systems, is evaluated in this study. Steel Plate Shear Walls (SPSW) are a new type of system resistant to wind and earthquake lateral loads, which dates back to the 1970s. In this research, eight samples of shear wall with various stiffening arrangements and sections with ST37 and ST52 alloys are modeled. To evaluate the nonlinear dynamic analysis, the samples are subjected to the San Fernando earthquake force and are modeled and analyzed by ABAQUS software based on the finite element theory. The results of analyzing the samples indicate better performance of the system with stiffener in both vertical and horizontal directions. Also, the use of sections with ST52 alloy has improved the performance of the shear wall by approximately 40%.


The advancement of high rise building has been increasing on a large scale. In tall structures shear wall often resisted the lateral load induced by wind and earthquake but as the building height increases the stiffness of the structure reduces. To provide sufficient lateral stiffness of the structure implementation of outrigger system between the shear walls and peripheral columns is often used. The aim of this study is to identify the optimum shape of outrigger belt truss in tall buildings under earthquake load condition. A thirty storey with single belt truss, forty five storeys with two belt trusses and sixty storey with three belt trusses structure was investigated with three different shape outrigger belt truss that is X, V and N. The optimum location by providing single belt truss at 10th story, 15th story and at top story in thirty story building is considered in the analysis. From the analysis a comparative study are made with and without variation of shape of outrigger with belt truss with parameters likes storey displacement and storey drift under earthquake loading and get a optimum position of outrigger belt truss for thirty storey building with single belt trusses placing at different locations.

Abstract: Structural analysis is the science of determining the effects of different loads on structures. Structural stability and stiffness are a main concern in any high-rise structures. Shear walls are structural members that are mainly responsible for resisting lateral loads predominant on structures. They are mainly responsible to increase the stiffness, reduce story drift and displacement. In order to have a comprehensive understanding about the contribution of shear wall, following research is carried out. This research involves comparing two G+16 structures; one without a shear wall and one with it. The structure has 4 bays of 3m each along X direction and Z direction. In this, we will see how shear wall resists lateral sway and reduces story drift and increases stiffness. As the height increases, the shear wall absorbs more lateral load than the frame. The software to be used for analysis is STAADPro. Keywords: STAADPro, Stiffness, storey displacement, storey drift.
