Insuring structural system ductility is a main factor justifying the reduction made on design earthquake forces. Reinforced concrete shear wall is one of the most important systems used for earthquake resistance of buildings. In this research, many factors affecting curvature ductility of shear wall sections are studied. These factors are reinforcement ratio, reinforcement distribution (uniform and concentrated), axial force level, section length, and material properties. Results show that increasing reinforcement ratio, will reduce ductility in case of uniform reinforced shear walls, but it stays stable in case of concentrated reinforcement. As for axial force level, curvature ductility becomes lower as axial force increases and almost diminishes when it becomes more than half ultimate axial force bearing capacity.

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.
In the last two decades, the use of advanced composite materials such as Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) in strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) structural elements has been increasing. Research and design guidelines concluded that externally bo nded FRP could increase the capacity of RC elements efficiently. However, the linear stressstrain characteristics of FRP up to failure and lack of yield plateau have a negative impact on the overall ductility of the strengthened RC elements. Use of hybrid FRP laminates, which consist of a combination of either carbon and glass fibers, or glass and aramid fibers, changes the behavior of the material to a non-linear behavior. This paper aims to study the performance of reinforced concrete beams strengthened by hybrid FRP laminates.
This research includes an experimental study and a nonlinear analysis using the finite element method of reinforced concrete beams with large opening in body that exist in shear zone . The tested beams are simply supported with rectangular section and without additional reinforcement in opening region. The opening is square in shape with variable dimensions and constant distance from the support . Studying the effect of changing length of the opening on the behavior of the reinforced concrete beams was already completed. The modes of cracks , (load-deflection ) relationship, ultimate load and the mode of failure for all beams were determinate . The study showed that existence an opening in shear region of beams reduce the strength of beams and affect on the mode of shear failure , and any addition in the depth of the opening lead to early cracks , more deflections and less ultimate failure load .
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.
The Steel/RC composite Column-beam connection joint is considered one of the most important subjects in framed construction. Ductility has the most influence among other factors that control the behavior of this joint, and the nonlinear behavior of this joints when subjected to large and cyclic loading is dominated by several parameters. These parameters reflect the assembled components of the joint for every component has a distinguished material and therefore specific behavior under the loading corresponding to it.
