Abstract:
Use of composite steel shear walls (CSSW) in earthquake-resistant structures has grown in recent years. However, no thorough information exists on their performance, especially in cases where openings are present. In the present study, in order to first validate the analysis method, ABAQUS was used to model the studied composite shear wall with gap at UC-Berkeley, according to the results of which, a good agreement between the experimental and analytical models was observed. Then, the effect of the position and number of the openings on the performance of the walls was addressed. To this end, models with various openings, including openings close to the beam/column, horizontal/vertical openings and distributing opening, were prepared and analyzed. The results indicate that the maximum reduction in stiffness and strength occurred in walls with single openings. The size of opening and the opening’s area significantly affect shear wall performance. Ultimately, artificial neural network and fitness function tools were employed to obtain predictive models for shear wall performance. A neural network has proven an appropriate alternative method for predicting the displacement, stress, and strength of the composite shear wall.

Abstract:
Shear walls have high strength and stiffness, which could be used at the same time to resist large horizontal loads and weight loads, making them pretty beneficial in several structural engineering applications. The shear walls could be included with openings, such as doors and windows, for relevant functional requirements. In the current study, a building of G + 13 stories with RC shear walls with and without openings has been investigated using ETABS Software. The seismic analysis is carried out for the determination of parameters like shear forces, drift, base shear, and story displacement for numerous models. The regular and staggered openings of the shear wall have been considered variables in the models. The dynamic analysis is carried out with the help of ETABS software. It has been observed that shear walls without openings models perform better than other models, and this is in agreement with the previous studies published in this area. This investigation also shows that the seismic behaviour of the shear wall with regular openings provides a close result to the shear wall with staggered openings. At the roof, the displacement of the model with regular openings was 38.99 mm and approximately 39.163 mm for the model with staggered openings. However, the model without a shear wall experienced a displacement of about 56 mm at the roof. Generally, it can be concluded that the openings have a substantial effect on the seismic behaviour of the shear wall, and that should be taken into consideration during the construction design. However, the type of opening (regular or staggered) has a slight effect on the behaviour of shear walls.

Abstract:
A shear wall becomes weak when an opening is provided in it. It is important to provide some arrangement in the shear wall having an opening for recovering strength loss due to the opening. It may be recovered by providing some steel profiles around the opening or at weaker sections in the shear wall having an opening. At first, the identification of weaker sections in the shear wall having an opening is important and then, the wall can be made stronger as the shear wall without an opening by strengthening weaker sections. In the present study, the performance of a shear wall having an opening subjected to horizontal cyclic loading along the plane of the shear wall in the presence of concealed stiffeners is investigated. The reduced models of shear walls with openings were tested under axial and lateral load conditions. Load-carrying capacity, deformation behavior and strain behavior of shear walls were studied with experiments and the validation of the results was made with general-purpose finite element software ANSYS. Significant improvements were observed in strength, deformation and strain behavior of a shear wall having a central opening using concealed reinforced concrete (RC) stiffeners and steel tube stiffeners.

Abstract:
Finite Element Modeling now a day is an essential approach in analysis and simulating civil engineering problem numerically. In this thesis ANALYTICAL STUDY ON STRENGTH CHARACTERISTICS OF BUILDING USING SHEAR WALL WITH AND WITHOUT OPENINGS UNDER LATERAL LOADS to apply the finite element modeling in analyzing and exploring the behavior of shear wall with & without opening under seismic load actions and wind load actions. In modern tall buildings, shear walls are commonly used as a vertical structural element for resisting the lateral loads that may be induced by the effect of wind and earthquakes. Shear walls are generally located at the sides of buildings or arranged in the form of core that houses stairs and lifts. Due to functional requirements such as doors, windows, and other openings, a shear wall in a building contains many openings. The size and location of openings may vary from architectural and functional point of view. In most of the apartment building, size and location of openings in shear wall are made without considering its effect on structural behavior of the building. This study is carried out on G+20 story frame-shear wall buildings, using linear elastic analysis with the help of finite element software, ETABS under earthquake loads in equivalent static analysis. The results reveal that stiffness as well as seismic responses of structures is affected by the size of the openings as well as their locations in shear wall. It is also explored that top lateral drift of the system can also be reduced thickening the element in the model around the opening of shear wall.

Abstract:
It is necessary to study failure dependence problem in order to solve system reliability in the field of Civil Engineering. In this paper, failure dependence of reinforced concrete shear walls with different openings (including the whole shear wall, the shear wall with small opening, the coupled shear wall, the shear wall frame) are studied under fortification earthquakes using Monte Carlo method. The results demonstrate that failure of reinforced concrete shear walls with different openings is neither fully independent nor fully relevant. The number of failure dependent floors is about one-half total floors. The failure dependent floors are concentrated mainly in the upper part.

Abstract:
Abstract: Multi-storey buildings have fascinated mankind from the beginning of civilization, their construction being initially for defence and subsequently for ecclesiastical purposes. These tall buildings because of its height, is affected by lateral forces due to wind or earthquake actions tends to snap the building in shear and push it over in bending. In general, the rigidity (i.e. Resistance to lateral deflection) and stability (i.e. Resistance to overturning moments) requirement become more important. Shear walls (Structural walls) contribute significant lateral stiffness, strength, and overall ductility and energy dissipation capacity. In many structural walls a regular pattern of openings has to be provided due to various functional requirements such as to accommodate doors, windows and service ducts. Such type of openings reduces the stiffness of the shear wall to some extent depending on the shape and size of the opening. In the present parametric study, efforts are made to investigate and critically assess the effects of various size of openings in shear walls on the responses and behaviours of multi-storey buildings also Opening Area Effect of Core Type Shear Wall In Hospital Building with Highest Importance Factor. Many G+20 storey prototype buildings with different types of openings in shear wall with and without incorporating the volume of shear wall reduced in the boundary elements are analysed using software Staad-Pro using Response spectrum method (1893-2016). Overall analysis shows that the most efficient case for this study has been HIF5. The hospital building can be survived with highest importance with the value of I = 1.5 as per IS 1893:2016 for opening area effect of core type shear wall. It can also be recommended that upto 25% opening will be possible without any seismic damage. Keywords: Shear wall, Opening Criteria, Highest Importance Factor, Multi-storey Hospital Building

Abstract:
Shear walls along the exterior perimeter of buildings increase the efficiency of buildings to resist seismic forces. In some conditions, the locations of shear walls are very critical because of the demand of architectural openings like doors and windows in the exterior face of the buildings. The literature has revealed that stiffness and seismic response of the structure is affected by the size of openings and location of openings in shear walls. This paper demonstrates effect of static and dynamic actions on 15 storey RC building having shear walls with openings. 32 building models have been prepared in commercial software STAAD for various inline and staggered openings in shear walls. Seismic coefficient method and Response spectrum method are used for seismic analysis. The analysis is carried out for the seismic zones III and IV for hard and medium soil conditions. The paper compares the response of these building models having shear wall with and without openings on parameters of time period, base shear, storey displacement, storey drifts and surface stress distribution. Uniform stress distribution was observed in shear wall with staggered opening as compared to inline openings.

Abstract:
In recent decades, reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls have been one of the best structural solutions to resist lateral load in high-rise buildings. Shear wall openings are essential for preparations and architectural requirements, which weaken the wall, reducing bearing capacity, energy absorption, and stiffness while also causing stress concentrations. This paper presents a comprehensive finite element (FE) investigation of the behavior and performance of RC shear walls with openings and subjected to lateral loads. The study aims to evaluate the influence of various parameters, such as opening location, size, wall aspect ratio, axial load, and concrete strength, which affect the performance of shear walls. FE models were developed to simulate the seismic response of RC shear walls under the combined effect of constant axial and lateral loads. The obtained results from the FE model showed a successful validation using the experimental data available in the literature. The FE analysis results demonstrate that the inclusion of lower openings leads to a 25% decrease in the bearing capacity of the wall when compared to the upper openings. Moreover, it was observed that augmenting the sizes of the openings and the aspect ratios of the wall resulted in declines in the strength, stiffness, and energy absorption capacity of the wall while simultaneously enhancing the ductility and displacement of the RC shear walls.

Abstract:
Reinforced concrete coupled walls are cantilevered shear walls joined by coupling beams and are used in high-rise apartment for many years. Rectangular openings are the most common shape of openings used in shear wall in order to provide doors, windows, entrance to car park areas and elevators or staircases. Behavior of coupling beams affect the strength of coupled walls. This research suggests adding haunches to the corners of rectangular openings and form octagonal openings as a method to increase the strength of coupling beams. The experimental results of shear wall with single band of rectangular and octagonal openings are compared in terms of behavior of coupling beams under cyclic load. The results demonstrate that the coupling beams in shear wall with octagonal openings are stronger than coupling beams in shear wall with rectangular openings.

Abstract:
Shear walls are important vertical and lateral bearing element in structures. While shear walls with openings are fragile due to stress concentration and the quasi-brittle behavior of concrete in tension. Therefore, additional strengthening rebars are required for the shear walls with openings. However, it aggravates the problem of dense reinforcement which increases the steel cage manufacturing and concrete compaction problem and still lacks countermeasures against concrete damage and cracking. To reduce the rebar demand and improve the damage tolerance of squat reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls with openings, an optimized steel-fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) was adopted to understand the seismic performance by cyclical loading test. The tested specimens included a plain RC shear wall without strengthening bar around the opening (for comparison), an SFRC shear wall, and an SFRC shear wall with a reduced distributed steel bar. This paper mainly studies the effect of using SFRC to improve the seismic performance of the open shear wall and to replace the reinforcement around the opening and the shear reinforcement. The hysteresis curves, skeleton curves, stiffness degradation, bearing capacity degradation and energy dissipation of the specimens were analyzed. The results show that the failure can be delayed and relieved, the deformation capacity and energy dissipation can considerably improve, and rebars can be partially replaced by using SFRC.

The main objective of the study is to verify the accuracy of the approximate hand calculation method used extensively by the engineers for the calculation of the rigidity of shear walls with openings. Different types of shear walls are considered varying in the dimensions and positions of the opening, however, maintaining the same basic material properties. The results obtained by the hand calculation are compared to the finite element approach to check for the discrepancy. The finite element analysis software NISA/DISPLAY IV and SAP2000 is considered for the purpose.

Abstract:
In this study, parameters related to material properties, geometry, and external stimuli were examined individually to determine their influence on multi-story, partially grouted, perforated (openings), masonry shear walls using a finite element software FormWorks. The parameters studied were: the strength of grouted masonry prisms f'm,grouted; the strength of un-grouted (hollow) masonry prisms f'm,ungrouted; the ratio of mortar shear strength to masonry compressive strength; vertical and horizontal reinforcement ratios in terms of size and spacing of reinforcement; axial load; aspect ratio; and openings that were vertically and horizontally altered. To perform this study, finite element models were validated against the response of three experimental walls of two unique types that were built ½ scale and tested in a lab. The validated finite element models were designated as "base models" which accurately predicted the maximum strength of each wall within a tolerance of 5.9%, 3.3%, and 1.8%. Following validation, each parameter in question was varied individually to identify and quantify the sensitivity of the parameter and to observe the changes in shear capacity and deflection for this unique configuration of masonry shear walls. To capture the impact of these parameters, 38 different shear wall models were built and tested. The results were compared against the Masonry Standards Joint Committee (MSJC) (2013) code predictions using the applicable shear strength equations. Results of this study are specific to cantilever type masonry shear walls with large aspect ratios and openings in every story. Shear wall capacity was considered sensitive to the following parameters: compressive strength of grouted masonry; compressive strength of un-grouted masonry; joint strength ratio; vertical reinforcement ratio; axial stress; aspect ratio; and opening width. Shear wall capacity was considered not sensitive to the following parameters: horizontal reinforcement ratio; vertical reinforcement spacing; and horizontal reinforcement spacing. The sensitivity of shear wall capacity to opening height was determined inconclusive. The sensitivities were determined by fitting trend lines to the results of shear capacity vs. each parameter individually. Each MSJC (2013) code prediction un-conservatively over-predicted the shear wall capacity except one wall configuration that had a joint strength ratio of 0.045.

Abstract:
During an earthquake, shear walls can experience damage around corners of doors and windows due to development of stress concentration. Reinforcements provided to minimize this damage are designed for forces that develop at these corners known as transfer forces. In this thesis, the focus is on understanding the forces that develop around opening corners in cross laminated timber (CLT) shear walls and reinforcement requirements for the same. In the literature, four different analytical models are commonly considered to determine the transfer force for design of wood-frame shear walls. These models have been reviewed in this thesis. The Diekmann model is found to be the most suitable analytical model to determine the transfer force around a window-type opening. Numerical models are developed in ANSYS to analyse the forces around opening corners in CLT shear walls. CLT shear walls with cut-out openings are analysed using a three-dimensional brick element model and a frame model. These models highlight the increase in shear and torsion around opening corners due to stress concentration. The coupled-panel construction practice for CLT shear walls with openings is analysed using a continuum model calibrated to experimental data. The analysis shows the increase in strength and stiffness of walls, when tie-rods are used as reinforcement. Analysis results also indicate that the tie-rods should be designed to behave linearly for optimum performance of the wall. Finally, a linear regression model is developed to determine the stiffness of a simply-supported CLT shear wall with a window-type opening. This model provides insight into the effect of various geometrical and material parameters on the stiffness of the wall. The process of model development has been explained, which can be improved further to include the behaviour of anchors.<br>Applied Science, Faculty of<br>Civil Engineering, Department of<br>Graduate

Abstract:
Shear walls are the primary lateral load resisting elements in bearing wall systems used in masonry construction. Horizontal loads due to wind or earthquake are transferred to vertical walls by diaphragms that are rigid such as concrete floor slabs or flexible such as wood floors. With rigid diaphragms, loads are apportioned to the supporting walls based on their relative rigidity. Walls with openings accommodating doors and windows (“perforated walls”) have reduced rigidity that can be determined using available hand calculation methods. These methods primarily focus on analysis procedures, not on the visualization of the load path that is critically important in structural engineering practice. The analogy of springs in series or parallel is used to determine the equivalent stiffness of elastic systems in structural dynamics. This thesis uses this analogy to develop a method that can help visualize load flow in perforated shear walls connected to rigid diaphragms. Rigidities are calculated using existing methods and combined as springs in series or parallel to represent a perforated wall. Loads taken by the wall segments correspond to the electrical current flowing through this imaginary “circuit”. To help visualize the load path, the line drawing representation of springs in series or parallel and the applied lateral load are deliberately oriented in the vertical direction. The application of the analogy is illustrated by several numerical examples of varying complexity taken from text books. Finite element solutions are included in the comparisons to provide a measure of the relative accuracy of hand calculation methods. The analogy can be extended to refine existing hand calculation methods though this increases computational effort. It improves accuracy but only for cases where the aspect ratio of the wall segments is such that shear effects are dominant.

Abstract:
The effect of door and window openings on long timber framed shear walls was the subject of this thesis. Four different wall configurations containing various openings and one control wall with no openings were tested to examine ultimate load capacity and stiffness. All walls were forty feet in length and contained tie-down anchorage at the extreme ends of the wall only. Two replications of the five wall configurations were built. Each of the five wall configurations was tested using a: 1) monotonic displacement pattern and 2) sequential phased displacement pattern. A better understanding of the effect of monotonic and cyclic loading (and the relationship between the two loading types) on ultimate load capacity and stiffness for a given wall configuration were examined. To efficiently design shear walls, the effect of openings on shear wall performance must be known. This thesis adds to previous work on shear walls with openings to provide valuable information for future use. Results from this investigation are intended to provide useful information regarding performance of long shear walls with openings. Data concerning capacity, drift, elastic stiffness, and ductility are presented. Two methods of capacity prediction of shear walls with openings are examined. Sugiyama (1994) provided an empirical equation for prediction of load resistance that has been applied to capacity and is the basis for the perforated shear wall method. This thesis further validates his work to full scale long shear walls. A new method for capacity prediction was developed by the author and is also presented.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
Construction practices are constantly evolving in order to adapt to physical locations and economic conditions. These adaptations may result in more cost-effective designs, but may also come at a cost of strength. In masonry shear walls, it is becoming more common to reduce the amount of grouting from every cell to only those with reinforcement, a practice known as partial-grouting. Partially-grouted masonry responds differently and in a more complex matter to lateral loads as compared to fully-grouted masonry. The response is made even more complex by wall discontinuities in the form of openings. The main objective of this study is to validate the strut-and-tie procedure for the in-plane lateral strength prediction of partially-grouted, multistory, reinforced concrete masonry walls with openings. The research included testing six three story, half-scale masonry shear walls. Half of the walls had door openings while the other half had window openings. The configurations were selected to represent typical walls in multi-story buildings. The measured lateral strength was compared to estimations from the equations in the US masonry code and to those from an equivalent truss model and a strut-and-tie model. The results show that the U.S. masonry code equations over predicts while the equivalent truss model under predicts the lateral strength of the walls. The results further show that the strut-and-tie model is the most accurate method for lateral strength prediction and is able to account for wall openings and partial-grouting.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立屏東科技大學<br>森林系<br>90<br>The effects of sizes and amount of opening on the lateral resistance of structural light framing shear wall were under investigation in the study. The walls with the sizes of 2.41 by 3.66 m were framed with 2X4 SPF lumber of grade No. 1 and sheathed with hardwood plywood panels. There is no significant difference in racking strength between wall specimens having window opening less than 120 cm in width and without any opening. The racking strength of wall specimens were reduced about 17.8% and 14.7% for the wall having window openings of 160 cm and 200 cm in width, respectively, as compared to the walls without any opening. The wall having door opening in 80 cm width were 10.5% lower in racking strength than that of without any opening, and 46.8% and 68.5% lower were found for the wall specimens having 200 cm and 280 cm wide door opening, respectively. While no significant difference in racking strength were found for the wall with either double or single window opening, there was 20.8% lower for the wall having double door opening than that of having single opening. The lateral resistance of walls having door opened near load application and at the center of walls showed the similar performance, but a reduction of 13.9% in racking strength were found as the door opened at the far end of load application. The principal strain measured at the corner of 80cm wide window opening when the wall subjected to 350kgf of lateral loads was 50% higher than those measured at the other locations. Furthermore, there were 340% higher in strain measured at the corner of 200cm wide window opening and 80cm wide door opening. The maximum shear strain measured from 80cm wide window opening were 48% higher than the principal strain which were in compression. In the cases of 200cm and 80cm wide window opening, the principal strain was higher than maximum shear strain. The estimated principal stresses for 80cm and 200cm wide window opening of walls were 1.86 and 4.61 times of those walls without any opening. Similarly, it was 5.24 times in principal stress for the wall with 80cm wide door opening. The principal stresses were all higher than the values of maximum shear stresses. The orientation of principal stresses measured near the openings of walls were between 8~15 degrees, while the other location showed among —40~45 degrees. The higher values of horizontal stresses of walls with openings simulated based on the finite element analysis were distributed around the openings which matches the failure mode of the tests. Although the measured strain and stress at the corner of opening of walls were higher than the simulated results, the difference was reduced as the percentage of opening increased. Therefore, it is possible to predict the failure location of wood-framed walls with various openings under lateral loads by using finite element method.

Building interior will be no exit and cannot receive lighting and ventilation from outside, caused by the complete shear wall. Due to openings of the shear wall, the shear strength of the shear wall will reduce and affect its seismic capability. Using the TRIZ inventive theory to solve the shear wall with opening problems such as technical contradictions, physical contradictions and substance-field analysis to resolve three problems of buildings in shear wall:(1) Shear walls encounter with the conflict and must of lighting , ventilation and exit, how to set up shear walls or have any alternatives;(2) How to increase the seismic capacity (strength) of the shear wall with openings;(3) The shear walls with high windows, how to avoid influence of its structural reinforcement function and short column effect. This study investigated the principles such as nested and parameters change, and the standard solution like to change two substances (S1 and S2) can effectively solve these problems. In order to improve the reinforcing elements of design, the results show that the designer (Architect and Engineer) can use TRIZ theory to solve the problems of the shear wall with openings.

Abstract:
Abstract Chemical corrosion inhibition of steel in CO2 and/or H2S environments under high flow rates, hence high shear stresses, has long been a puzzle from an mechanistic point of view. Certain misconceptions had to be removed first before progress could be made. It had been believed that if inhibitors adsorb on the metal or corrosion product surface the resulting corrosion rate would only be dependent on concentration and not on flow rate. It had furthermore been a general belief that above a certain critical fluid velocity corrosion inhibition would no longer be possible. Systematic progress, however, had shown that there existed a relationship between fluid velocity and inhibitor concentration for equal corrosion rate, thereby opening the possibilities of corrosion inhibition at ever higher flow rates, albeit with higher inhibitor concentrations. High flow rates, however, lead to flow induced localized corrosion (FILC) which was shown to be due to the destruction of protective surface layers (corrosion products or combinations of it with inhibitor). It had been calculated that the destruction of such layers would require shear forces of the order of MPa (106Pa), while measurable wall shear stresses even in highly turbulent flow range only in the order of Pa and, hence, are by far too small to be the right parameter to quantify the hydrodynamic forces responsible for initiation of FILC. It has now been shown on the basis of theoretical calculations and measurements using micro technologies that wavelets of such magnitude could indeed occur. Near-wall „freak waves" are postulated with energies large enough to break corrosion product layers. It has then been shown that the energy contained in such freak waves can be greatly attenuated by chemicals, such as surfactants and corrosion inhibitors, hence providing a solid foundation for the understanding of inhibition of FILC under most severe conditions.

Abstract:
Appendix N9 to AISC N690s1 presents the design provisions for steel-plate composite (SC) walls in safety related nuclear facilities. AISC N690s1 is Supplement No. 1 to AISC N690-12 specification for safety related steel structures in nuclear facilities and was published in October 2015. This paper discusses the outline of Appendix N9 as well as how the appendix can be used for the design of SC wall structures. Appendix N9 establishes the minimum requirements that SC walls need to meet in order for the specification to be applicable. The requirements include minimum and maximum wall thickness and steel reinforcement ratio. Detailing requirements for SC wall panel sections are also discussed. The faceplate slenderness requirement to prevent the limit state of buckling before yielding is provided. Steel anchor requirements are based on developing adequate composite action, and preventing interfacial shear failure. Requirements for tie bars connecting the steel plates (faceplates) are provided to prevent splitting failure and out-of-plane shear failure. The detailing and design provisions for regions around openings in SC walls are also included. Appendix N9 provides a method of checking the design of SC walls for impactive and impulsive loads. A discussion of the analysis requirements for SC walls is presented. The provisions include effective stiffnesses, accident thermal loading and model parameters for analysis. The design strength equations for axial tension, axial compression, out-of-plane shear, out-of-plane flexure, in-plane shear, and for combined in-plane forces and out-of-plane moment demands are parts of the provisions of the appendix. The provisions also include interaction equations for evaluating tie bars resisting demands due to combination of out-of-plane and interfacial shear forces. Performance requirements for the anchorage of SC walls to concrete basemat, SC wall-to-wall connections and SC walls to floor slab connections are given in the appendix. The provisions also include requirements for fabrication, inspection, and quality control of SC walls constructed for safety-related nuclear facilities.

Abstract:
In place of traditional on-site construction, modular steel construction (MSC) is an excellent alternative and it is gaining popularity. The innovative construction method possesses higher construction speed and quality by moving large proportion of the building to be manufactured in the factory, which is favarable to environmental protection. Schools, hotels, and apartments have widely adopted modular steel construction as its convenience for transportation. This paper mainly focused on the lateral behavior of corrugated steel plate shear walls (CSPSWs) with openings or slits in container-like modular steel construction. A 3D finite element model (FEM) was established and validated against the test results. The failure process of the CSPSWs with opening was revealed and discussed. Further, theoretical deduction was carried out to predict the initial lateral stiffness of CSPSWs with opening and the proposed formulas agreed well with the test and simulation results. In addition, parametric analysis was performed to reveal the lateral behavior of CSPSWs with vertical slits based on the verified FEM. It indicated that the layer and location of the vertical slit have prominent influence on the initial stiffness and ultimate load of CSPSWs. Meanwhile, in order to investigate the effect of opening location on the initial stiffness of CSPSWs with openings, a parametric study was conducted and the reasonable location of the opening was recommended. The present study provides useful design guidelines for the design of CSPSWs, which is beneficial to promoting the application of modular steel construction.
