The composite shear wall system with permanent thermal-insulation wall form of glazed hollow bead is a new kind of energy-saving building. the experimental study on the seismic performance of composite shear wall structure was proposed. Through the tests of the walls with different shear-span ratio and axial compression ratio under vertical force and low cyclic horizontal load, the seismic behaviors of slitted shear walls under low cyclic load tests were studied. Through the expemental study, the calculation methods for load-bearing capacity of walls with different shear-span ratio were obtained. And then the laws for the energy dissipation and ductility feature were revealed. Besides, the comparison analysis were made on the seismic behaviors between composite shear walls and common shear walls.The study could provide a foundation for the designing evaluating on the performance for the new structure.

This article investigates the shear strength of steel plate reinforced concrete shear wall under cyclic loads. A nonlinear three-dimensional finite element model in ABAQUS was developed and validated against published experimental results. Then, a parametric study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the parameters on the lateral capacity of composite shear wall, including shear span ratio, concrete strength, axial load ratio, steel plate ratio and transverse reinforcement ratio of the web. Furthermore, a modified formula of shear strength of composite shear wall was proposed. Regression analyses were used to obtain the contribution coefficients of different parts from 720 finite element models. Finally, the shear strengths of specimens from published tests were compared with design strengths calculated using the proposed formula, American Institute of Steel Construction Provisions and Chinese Code. It was found that the Chinese Code well predicts the shear strength of composite shear wall of a steel plate ratio of less than 5%, while unsafely predicting that of a higher steel plate ratio. The American Institute of Steel Construction Provisions predictions are quite conservative because the contribution of the reinforced concrete is neglected. The modified formula safely predicts the shear strength of composite shear wall.

Steel-Concrete composite shear wall has become popular recently as it compensates for the disadvantages of concrete and steel plate shear walls and combine the advantage of both. However, there is no detail study that identifies the most critical parameters. This study aims at investigation of steel plate-concrete composite shear wall behavior under cyclic loading with variables such as concrete strength, grade of steel plate, total number of tie constraints and thickness of steel plate. ABAQUS/Standard is used for numerical modeling in this study. As the concrete strength decreases from 86.1Mpa to 45Mpa, the load capacity declined by 11.76% and higher stiffness was recorded in specimen with higher grade of concrete. The ductility factor is inversely proportional to grade of concrete from 86.1Mpa to 60Mpa which increases from 4.26 to 4.68 and the ductility factor of specimen with 45Mpa strength is recorded as 3.81. The energy dissipation capacity is directly proportional to the grade of concrete used. Using high grade steel plate increases the lateral load capacity significantly and exhibited more ductile behavior. Specimen with S355 steel grade exhibited 14.01% increment of the average load capacity while the specimen with S245 steel grade has shown reduction by 9.21%. Similarly, the ductility factor and energy dissipation capacity of specimen with variable grade of steel are directly proportional. Reduction of tie constraints has no significant effect on the behavior in this study due to high confinement effect of concrete by surrounding steel plate. Specimens with thicker steel plate exhibited good energy dissipation capacity.
