RISDecay of Torsional Stiffness in RC U-Shaped Walls
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Reinforced concrete (RC) U-shaped walls are a popular construction choice, commonly used to resist the lateral loads from wind and earthquakes. In many buildings, the center of stiffness of a floor is eccentric from the ...
Influence of Lap Splices on the Deformation Capacity of RC Walls. II: Shell Element Simulation and Equivalent Uniaxial Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Spliced longitudinal reinforcement may result in a reduction of both strength and displacement capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) members. This applies in particular when lap splices are located in regions where inelastic ...
Three-Parameter Kinematic Theory for Shear-Dominated Reinforced Concrete Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper is aimed at addressing the need for physically accurate and computationally effective models for predicting the response of shear-dominated reinforced concrete walls. The presented theory is based on a ...

Influence of Lap Splices on the Deformation Capacity of RC Walls. I: Database Assembly, Recent Experimental Data, and Findings for Model Development
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recent postearthquake missions have shown that reinforced concrete (RC) wall buildings can experience critical damage owing to lap splices, which led to a recent surge in experimental tests of walls with such constructional ...
