Seismic performance of Steel Shear Wall with Slits integrated with multi story composite moment frame
Abstract
Cyclic loading tests were conducted on three story one bay composite frames braced by Steel Shear Wall with slits under constant axial load. Test parameters were shape of the segments between vertical stiffeners and stiffening method to restrain out-of-plane deformation of the shear plates. All specimens underwent roof drift angle of more than 0.05 rad. without loosing axial strength. Response of the shear wall was similar to the response observed in the tests on the walls not integrated with the frame.
