This book was released on 2017 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steel plate shear walls (SPSW) are a reliable lateral force-resisting system with high ductility, stable hysteretic response, and high lateral stiffness. The main lateral force-resisting elements of a SPSW are thin steel infill plates (web plates) that are connected to columns and beams on four edges. Due to a mechanism called tension field action, web plates pull in columns and induce significant flexural demands in columns when the system undergoes a lateral sway. Steel plate shear walls with beam-connected web plates (B-SPSW) are an alternative configuration to conventional SPSWs where columns are detached from web plates to eliminate column flexural demands resulting from tension field action. Due to the difference in the boundary conditions of web plates, the behavior of B-SPSWs is different than conventional SPSWs. A three-phase numerical study has been undertaken to investigate the seismic behavior of B-SPSWs. In the first phase, a parametric study was conducted to characterize beam-connected web plate behavior using validated finite element models and a simplified model was proposed to simulate cyclic behavior of beam-connected web plates under lateral loading. In the second phase, web plate and beam design equations were proposed and eighteen B-SPSWs possessing different geometric characteristics were designed for a low-seismic site using these equations. The B-SPSWs were subjected to ground motions to assess their seismic performance. The results of the proof-of-concept study indicated that B-SPSWs would be an attractive alternative lateral force-resisting system for low- and moderate-seismic regions. The third phase focused on the behavior of B-SPSW columns. The columns of the B-SPSWs considered in the second phase of the study were remodeled adopting more sophisticated modeling techniques to study the column behavior in detail. The results indicated that column flexural demands resulting from column rotations at floor levels due to differential interstory drifts caused column stability problems for some cases even if the axial load demands were below the design axial loads. Then a parametric study was conducted on isolated columns to quantify the effect of these flexural demands on column buckling strength. An empirical equation was proposed to estimate the reduction in the column buckling strength due to the moment demands associated with differential lateral drifts that are not considered in the design stage.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unstiffened Steel Plate Shear Wall (SPSW) has widely been accepted as an effective lateral load resisting system for resisting wind and earthquake loads. This system has significant post-buckling strength, high ductility, stable hysteretic behaviors and robust initial stiffness. Composite Plate Shear Wall (C-PSW) is also a new form of steel shear wall which has a steel plate and a layer of reinforced concrete (RC) at one or both sides of the steel plate. The steel plate and the concrete layer are connected with shear studs to have a complete composite behavior. C-PSW has some advantages over SPSW such as protection against fire and blast loading. In addition, the presence of the concrete panel can prevent buckling of the steel plate and thereby increase the stiffness, shear strength, and energy dissipation capacity of the C-PSW system in comparison to conventional SPSW system. Often, SPSWs and C-PSWs need to accommodate large door or window size openings in the infill plates, such as when SPSWs/C-PSWs are used in the building central cores around the elevators. Current AISC design standard recommends use of horizontal and vertical local boundary elements (LBE), in the form of stiffeners, around these large rectangular openings to anchor the tension field developed in the infill plate. Research on SPSW with stiffened large openings like door and window sized openings is limited. Also research on C-PSWs with large openings is still in the initial stage and a significant amount of research is needed before it can be adopted by the Canadian steel design code. This study presents seismic performance of SPSWs and C-PSWs with door size openings in the web plate. Nonlinear FE models were developed in ABAQUS for SPSW and C-PSW with door size openings. The FE models include both material and geometric nonlinearities. The proposed FE model was validated against available experimental data. The study describes details of the validation of the finite element model. Two multi-storey (3- and 5-storey) SPSWs and C-PSWs were designed following the capacity design concept and the guidelines of current AISC seismic design standard. The performance of selected SPSWs and C-PSWs were investigated through conducting a series of time history analysis using a suite of 8 ground motions that are developed for western Canada and are compatible with Vancouver design response spectrum. Nonlinear seismic analysis shows that both SPSWs and C-PSWs with rectangular openings exhibit excellent seismic performance with high ductility and strength when subjected to strong ground motions. Maximum contribution of various structural components (i.e., infill plate and boundary members) in resisting applied lateral loads are calculated from seismic analysis and presented in the study. The maximum interstorey drift is found to be within the code limit for both systems under all ground motions. It is observed that the designed stiffeners around the openings are very effective in limiting the in-plane and out-of-plane deformations around the rectangular openings, especially in the SPSW system and the presence of these stiffeners do not alter the recommended yielding sequence of the system. In addition, it is observed that current AISC requirement to attach horizontal and vertical LBE around rectangular opening of C-PSW is conservative and can be relaxed if the infill plate is connected with the concrete panel with adequate shear connectors.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report presents the results of experimental and analytical studies to investigate the seismic performance of steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) considering different design philosophies of horizontal boundary elements (HBEs) and infill plates. The experimental study on a three-story SPSW specimen showed the development of HBE in-span hinges which resulted in an accumulation of plastic incremental deformations. A finite element investigation on the tested SPSW specimen demonstrated similar behavior. Furthermore, collapse assessment of SPSWs with various structural configurations (e.g., panel aspect ratio, seismic weight intensity, and number of stories) was conducted to investigate impact of haring of story shear forces between the boundary frames and infill plates on the performance of SPSWs. SPSWs designed with the current seismic performance factors specified in the ASCE7-10 and neglecting the contribution of their boundary moment resisting frames to resist story shear forces met the FEMA P695 performance criterion, while that was not the case for SPSWs designed considering the sharing of story shear forces between the boundary frame and infill plates. Adjusted seismic performance factors were required for the latter SPSWs to rigorously meet the FEMA P695 performance criteria. Most importantly, the latter SPSWs were found to have a higher probability to suffer significantly larger interstory drift than the former. This research extends work reported in "Impact of Horizontal Boundary Elements Design on Seismic Behavior of Steel Plate Shear Walls" by R. Purba and M. Bruneau, MCEER-10-0007. The finite element analysis was performed using the software ABAQUS/Standard while the collapse assessment was performed using the software OpenSees"--Page iii.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) have been frequently used as the primary or part of the primary lateral force-resisting system in design of low-, medium-, and high-rise buildings. Their application has been based on two different design philosophies as well as detailing strategies. Stiffened and/or stocky-web SPSWs with improved buckling stability and high seismic performance have been mostly used in Japan, which is one of the pioneering countries in design and application of these systems. Unstiffened and slender-web SPSWs with relatively lower buckling and energy dissipation capacities, on the other hand, have been deemed as a rather economical alternative and accordingly widely used in the United States and Canada. Development and use of low yield point (LYP) steel with considerably low yield stress and high elongation capacity provides the possibility to combine merits of these two distinctive design strategies, and consequently result in rather cost-effective and high-performing SPSW systems. Although some reported studies have demonstrated the advantages of LYP steel shear walls, various aspects of structural and seismic characteristics of these systems have not been investigated thoroughly. In particular, the linkage between structural specifications and seismic performance and pathway to performance-based design of these systems are largely undeveloped. Hence, systematic investigations are required to facilitate the seismic design and prevalent application of such promising lateral force-resisting and energy dissipating systems. Although some reported studies have demonstrated the advantages of LYP steel shear walls, various aspects of structural and seismic characteristics of these systems have not been investigated thoroughly. In particular, the linkage between structural specifications and seismic performance and pathway to performance-based design of these systems are largely undeveloped. Hence, systematic investigations are required to facilitate the seismic design and prevalent application of such promising lateral force-resisting and energy dissipating systems. The main objectives of this research are to evaluate the structural behavior and seismic performance of unstiffened LYP steel shear wall systems in a rather comprehensive manner. To achieve these objectives, element-level investigations on steel plates, component-level investigations on SPSW panels, and system-level investigations on multi-story steel frame-shear wall structures are performed in a hierarchical and systematic manner. Through detailed element- and component-level investigations, it is shown that employment of LYP steel infill plates in SPSW systems facilitates the design and effectively improves the buckling stability, serviceability, and energy absorption capacity of such lateral force-resisting systems. Some practical design tools and recommendations are also provided through analytical and numerical studies. In system-level investigations, the effectiveness of use of LYP steel material in design and retrofit construction is demonstrated through nonlinear time-history analysis as well as seismic response and performance assessment of multi-story structures subjected to earthquake ground motions representing various hazard levels. Ultimately, the fragility methodology is utilized by developing appropriate fragility functions for probabilistic seismic performance and vulnerability assessment of structures designed and retrofitted with conventional and LYP steel infill plates. The results of this study are indicative of relatively lower damage probability and superior seismic performance of LYP steel shear wall systems.
