FULL SCALE STEEL PLATE SHEAR WALL: NCREE/MCEER PHASE I TESTS C.H. Lin1, K.C. Tsai2, Y.C. Lin3, K.J. Wang4, B. Qu5 and M. Bruneau6 ABSTRACT Measuring eight meters tall and four meters wide, two 2-story SPSW specimens were constructed in NCREE. The thickness of SS400 grade steel plate for the first story wall is 3 mm and for the second story it is 2mm. All the boundary beam and column elements are A572 GR 50 steel. In the Phase I tests, each of the SPSWs have horizontal tube restrainers on both sides to minimize the out-of-plane displacement and the buckling sound. In the Phase 2 tests, damaged steel plates were removed and replaced with new plates without the use of any restrainer. In both phases, the specimens was pseudo-dynamically tested using three ground accelerations, which were recorded in the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake and scaled up to represent seismic hazards of 2%, 10%, and 50% probabilities of exceedance in 50 years. Results of the Phase 1 tests show that; 1) the SPSWF specimen sustained three earthquakes without any significant wall fracture or overall strength degradation, 2) the horizontal restrainers were very effective in improving the serviceability of SPSWs, 3) the responses of the SPSWF can be simulated accurately using the strip model and the tension-only material property implemented in PISA3D computer program. 9CCEE Lin Tsai Lin Wnag Qu Bruneau.pdf

Experimental study of steel plate shear walls PA Timler, GL Kulak - 1983 - civil.ualberta.ca Abstract The use of steel plate shear walls to resist lateral forces in mult i-storey structures is a new and innovative design technique. Although a significant number of buildings have been constructed using the method, design has tended to be conservative, reflecting the ...
