Hysteretic Behaviour

In order to predict the inelastic response of reinforced concrete structures under dynamic earthquake loading, hysteretic behaviour of their structural components must be evaluated appropriately. Though various restoring force models have already been proposed for beams and columns, hysteretic behaviour of flexural type shear walls remains unclear in many respects. In this paper, an evaluation method of distributing the total deformation of a shear wall into the flexural and shear deformation is mentioned and an analytical one of evaluating these deformations is proposed. The comparison of analytical results with test results of shear walls is carried out.

Classification And Treatment

The design and detailing of earthquake resistant reinforced concrete shear walls of limited ductility designed by a modified strength design method are discussed. Suitable methods for the evaluation of actions and the determination of internal actions
are advanced, having regard to energy dissipation and the consequences of heavy damage or of collapse. Discussion is not restricted to uniform walls, but is extended to walls with openings, for which a suggested classification and treatment is presented, thus allowing for suitable design techniques for walls transitional between uniform walls and frames to be determined. Applications 
of the proposals are illustrated in an Appendix.

Wall System

One of the types of earthquake-resistant systems is the concrete shear wall system, which has attracted the attention of engineers due to its good performance in past earthquakes. But some architectural constraints force engineers to install openings in shear walls; thus, this will affect the behavior of the shear wall. Many researchers have conducted experimental and finite element studies for assessing the effects of openings in reinforced concrete shear walls. However, there is a lack of comprehensive comparisons between different studies. This paper reviews some most recent experimental and finite element studies available in the literature and presents a review of the main contributions. This literature review reveals that the seismic responses and the stiffness of structures are influenced by the size and location of the openings in the reinforced shear wall.
