The Effect of Spandrel Beam's Specification on Response Modification Factor of Concrete Coupled Shear Walls

Response modification factor (R factor) is one of the seismic design parameters to be considered in evaluating the performance of buildings during strong motions. This paper has tried to evaluate the response modification factor of concrete coupled shear wall structures with various length/depth rat...
