Summary: | Concrete filled composite plate shear wall is an innovative structural lateral
force resisting system that is being investigated experimentally and
numerically. It consists of pre-fabricated steel web plates that are spaced
parallel to each other by having
regularly spaced cross-connecting tie bars (rods) which is then filled with
concrete. This paper make use of previously
developed numerical models and extends the study to investigate different
aspects of wall behavior. In this study, two of the previously tested wall
models were used to investiagete percentage of steel plate yielding at certain
wall elevations per certain drift levels, steel plate von-Mises stress contours,
the distribution of cracks in concrete, relative contribution of steel plates
and concrete to total wall base shear and axial stress distribution of steel
plate and concrete. The study assumes fixed-based walls and describes the
development of finite element models using LS-Dyna. |
