EFFECTS OF COLUMN STIFFNESS ON SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF STEEL PLATE SHEAR WALLS

Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are a lateral force resisting system consisting of thin infill steel plates surrounded by boundary frame members. The infill steel plates are allowed to buckle in shear and subsequently form diagonal tension field actions during earthquake events. Hysteretic energy di...
