The purpose of this report is to determine the effectiveness of using shear walls with Moment-resisting frames by modeling two bare frame structures. The first model is a combination of bare frames and shear walls, and the second model is without she
ar walls, and analyzing them statically (LATERAL FORCE METHOD) and dynamically (RESPONSE SPECTRUM METHOD) using ETABS 2016 software, and comparing the results of base shear forces, displacements and vibration modes, in order to form a comprehensive understanding of the proper use of shear walls.
The report raises critical questions regarding the key factors of resisting seismic forces on similar structures, where rigidity or ductility can play opposing roles in the overall structure resistance.
Structural Frame system is considers as an earthquake resisting structural
systems. On the other hand, many techniques were used to improve the
resistance against lateral loads. where Steel Plate Shear Wall fixed within
frame span is one of those
techniques.
This research aims to develop the Strip model of Partial Steel Plate Shear
Walls with Reinforced-Concrete Frame with opening parallel to beams.
Frame structures contribute to resist the seismic loads. On the other hand, many techniques were used to improve the resistance against lateral loads where steel shear walls are considered to be one of these ways.
This research aims to study the eff
ect of strengthening of the
reinforced concrete frames inserting perforated steel plate shear walls embedded within the frame. This study applied numerical analysis using Finite Element Method (FEM) using nonlinear pushover analysis based on geometrically and Materially Non-Linear Analysis (GMNLA) was performed. To study the behavior of the steel plate that seal the hall span of the reinforced concrete frame against lateral loads. Moreover, perforated steel plate was studied taking under consideration the effect of the number and the area of the perforations and strengthening of the perforations circumference on the resistance was observed.
This study conclude that using a perforated steel plate shear wall with reinforced- concrete frames and strengthening of the perforations circumference can enhance the resistance significantly beside that it decrease the frame deflection.
The horizontal Join beams with the slabs of reinforced concrete play the, the role of horizontal shear walls on the building height, Thus, the horizontal beams, columns and shear walls work together to form, the vertical resistance and horizontal loa
ds resulting from wind pressure or the intensity of earthquakes As a result to the great importance of the work of the join beams between wings of shear wall in the carrier wholesale of armed concrete، we have conducted experiments on shear wall and the result experiments compare with theory scientists and researchers in high- buildings. Been compared join beams with moment of stiffness constant in the level of its confluence with wings shear walls (Hold the forces of resistance horizontal dynamic plasticity in stage). And join beams in the form of crowns with moment of stiffness variable in the level of its confluence with wings shear walls.
We suggest a new theory with relationship for the change in the moment of stiffness join beams with crowns between wings of shear wall from reinforced concrete. Extract the experimental results and
compare them with the proposals of the new theory, and computational methods for global theories on the subject of search
And the impact of the work of the join beams with crowns between wings shear walls on the horizontal loads external pressure intensity of earthquakes or wind.
