Due to mechanical performances of brace and steel plate, mechanical properties of semi-rigid joints and its construction and installation, semi-rigid steel frame-braced steel plate shear wall system is proposed. Nonlinear static analysis with parameters (thickness of plate, type of brace, size of brace and the ratio of span to height) changed of a single-span and single-floor semi-rigid steel frame-braced steel plate shear wall system illustrates that braced steel plate shear walls contributes obviously to bearing capacity and lateral rigidity of semi-rigid steel frame. Also, the finite element analysis (by ANSYS) show that semi-rigid steel frame-braced steel plate shear wall system has excellent ductility.

Steel Shear Wall

Corrugated steel plate shear wall (CSPSW) is one of the lateral resistance systems which consists mainly of steel frame (beam and column) with vertical or horizontal corrugated steel plate connected to the frame by weld, bolts or both. This type of steel shear wall characterized by low cost and short construction time with high strength, ductility, initial stiffness and excellent ability to dissipate energy. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the effect of corrugation angle and its direction on the performance of CSPSW under cyclic loading. The Finite element analysis was employed to achieve the research aim. The FE models were validated with experimental data available in the literature. Results reveal that the corrugation angle has a clear influence on initial stiffness, strength, ductility, and energy dissipation of CSPSW. The optimum performance of CSPSW can be obtained with angles of 30o for CSPSW with vertical corrugation and 20o for CSPSW with horizontal corrugation. The use of CSPSW with vertical corrugation provides higher strength, stiffness, and ductility compared to CSPSW with horizontal corrugation. Therefore, it is recommended to use CSPSW with vertical corrugation.

The semi-rigid steel frame-composite steel plate shear wall structure (SCSW) effectively improves the lateral stiffness of shear wall, making it possible to use the semi-rigid joint. In order to study the plastic failure mechanism of SCSW, a plastic model is established, in which the effects of the rotations of semi-rigid joints and yield deformations of infill steel walls on the energy consumption are considered. Based on that, a design method for the lateral ultimate strength is put forward and a nonlinear FEM model is setup using ANSYS. Through the comparison between plastic analysis results with the finite element results, it is shown that the plastic analysis method is feasible and has a safe redundancy.

This paper mainly researched the behavior of double fish plate connector between steel plate shear wall structure and steel frame. Four single fish plate connectors and four double fish plate connectors were tested under monotonic and cyclic loading. The hysteretic curves, skeleton curves, stiffness degradation curve and ductility coefficient were considered to study the behavior of two connections. Results showed that the behavior of double fish plate connector between steel plate shear walls and steel frame was better than single fish plate connector. Double fish plate connectors had higher bearing capacity, slower stiffness degradation, better ductility and better energy dissipation capacity. Constraint effect of steel plate shear walls became stronger, and the out-of-plane buckling failure of steel plate shear walls was delayed. Therefore, the double fish plate connectors could improve the behavior of connection between steel plate shear walls and steel frame, and provide a reference for engineering application

The Future

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%.

Steel Plate Shear Wall

Coupled steel plate shear wall (C-SPSW) is one of the resisting systems with high ductility and energy absorption capacity. Energy dissipation in the C-SPSW system is accomplished by the bending and shear behavior of the link beams and SPSW. Energy dissipation and floor displacement control occur through link beams at low seismic levels, easily replaced after an earthquake. In this study, an innovative coupled steel plate shear wall with a yielding FUSE is presented. The system uses a high-ductility FUSE pin element instead of a link beam, which has good replaceability after the earthquake. In this study, four models of coupled steel plate shear walls were investigated with I-shaped link beam, I-shaped link beam with reduced beam section (RBS), box-link beam with RBS, and FUSE pin element under cyclic loading. The finite element method was used through ABAQUS software to develop the C-SPSW models. Two test specimens of coupled steel plate shear walls were validated to verify the finite element method results. Comparative results of the hysteresis curves obtained from the finite element analysis with the experimental curves indicated that the finite element model offered a good prediction of the hysteresis behavior of C-SPSW. It is demonstrated in this study that the FUSE pin can improve and increase the strength and energy dissipation of a C-SPSW system by 19% and 20%, respectively.

Ductility Ratio

The thin unstiffened steel plate shear wall (SPSW) system has now emerged as a promising lateral load resisting system. Considering performance-based design requirements, a ductility-based design was recently proposed for SPSW systems. It was felt that a detailed and closer look into the aspect of seismic lateral force distribution was necessary in this method. An investigation toward finding a suitable lateral force distribution for ductility-based design of SPSW is presented in this paper. The investigation is based on trial designs for a variety of scenarios where five common lateral force distributions are considered. The effectiveness of an assumed trial distribution is measured primarily on the basis of how closely the design achieves the target ductility ratio, which is measured in terms of the roof displacement. All trial distributions are found to be almost equally effective. Therefore, the use of any commonly adopted lateral force distribution is recommended for plastic design of SPSW systems.

The behaviour under cyclic loading of unstiffened steel plate shear wall panels at their connection to the bounding beams and columns was investigated on full-size panel corner details. Four different infill panel connection details were tested to examine and compare their response to quasi-static cyclic loading. The load versus displacement response of the details showed gradual and stable deterioration at higher loads. The formation of tears in the connection details did not result in a loss of load-carrying capacity. In addition to the experimental program, a finite element model was developed to model the behaviour of one of the infill plate corner connection specimens. Results from the analysis showed that the finite element method can be used to obtain the load versus displacement behaviour of an infill panel-to-boundary member arrangement.Key words: cyclic loading, hysteresis, shear wall, steel, welded connection.
