The study of this paper focuses on the seismic performance of a new complex tall building-FSRMW (frame-supported-reinforced-masonry-shear-wall).The new structure combines the advantages of RMW (reinforced-masonry-shear-wall) and FSRCW (frame-supported- reinforced- concrete-shear-wall) and have good economic value and extensive use value.Big space can be gained by using the structure, which provide a new appropriate selection for the design of hotel, multifunctional office building and dwelling house with shop at bottom. Substructure pseudodynamic testing were adopted to carrying out the seismic testing of 1:4 Reduced-scale models of FSRMW.Seismic evaluation of this structure has been carried out by substructure pseudodynamic testing of 1/4-scale specimen.The dynamic response of the tested structure under the influence of earthquake excitation is analyzed.The horizontal bearing capacity and the damage degree of the test model are investigated. The testing are cited to illustrate that the seismic performance of the structure(frame-shear-wall-supported reinforced masonry shear wall) is better than that structure(frame- supported reinforced masonry shear wall) and can be satisfied with the design request of 6-8 degree seismic zone.

Reinforced concrete eccentric frame - shear wall structures has been widely used in Engineering, but this structure is mostly used for high-rise structure. Depending on experimental study will be unable to accurately draw the seismic reflection of structure, it needs to use the simulation software to study the seismic performance of high-rise structure. In this paper, by using ANSYS finite element analysis software to establish the numerical model which is based on the test model to carry out the seismic performance simulation. Then, through the improvement measures to get the measures for improved seismic performance.

The paper elaborates the study of effects of location of shear wall in an irregular shaped building. The main concerned issue is the generation of torsion in a building which is irregular in plan. The paper points out the causes, effects and solution of the torsional forces in an irregular shaped building. The study is done on an ‘L’ shaped building which G+10 storied and is located in Seismic Zone IV exhibiting medium soil conditions and a damping of 5%. The modelling and analysis will be performed by using CSI ETABS ver.16. Dynamic Analysis is conducted in order to study the topic. The paper will finally point out the reasons for choosing a particular test model which exhibits lowest torsion and storey displacement.

The paper describes the preliminary phase of an experimental investigation into the behaviour of reinforced masonry shear wall elements subjected to high speed cyclic loading. The three specimens tested in the preliminary phase were full scale wall panels about 4 meters square, each consisting of two piers connected by a top and bottom spandrel; each panel was made from a different material. The results of the tests on the three specimens are presented in the form of dynamic force deflection relationships. The test equipment designed for the program is described in detail, and the next phase of the test program is outlined.
