Book excerpt: This report presents the theoretical basis for CTABS80, a computer program for the linear three-dimensional structural analysis of multistory frame and shear wall buildings subjected to static or dynamic loadings. In CTABS80, the building is idealized as an assemblage of vertical independent frame and shear wall systems interconnected by horizontal floor diaphragms which are rigid in their own plane. The frame and shear wall systems must basically be of rectangular geometry (in elevation) with vertical columns (or piers) and horizontal beams (or spandrels). However, with special modeling techniques, very complex situations may be considered. A special shear panel element is developed to enable modeling of discontinuous shear walls and shear walls with arbitrary openings. A diagonal bracing system to model braced frames (X-braced, K-braced, or eccentrically braced systems) is also presented. The column, shear panel, and diagonal formulations include the effects of bending, axial, and shear deformations. Bending and shear deformations are also included in the beam formulation: however, the effects of axial deformations are neglected. The effects of the finite dimensions of the beams and columns on the stiffness of a frame or shear wall system are automatically included. The buildings may be unsymmetrical and nonrectangular in plan. Torsional behavior and interstory compatibility are accurately reflected in the results.
