Structural Performance Assessment of Large Unstiffened Openings in Steel Plate Shear Walls and Introduction of Plate-Frame Interaction in Steel Plate Shear Walls with Perforated Infill Plates, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Mofid, Masood (Supervisor)
Abstract
One of the advantages of Steel Plate Shear Walls (SPSWs) is the possibility of using openings with varying sizes in the infill plates depending on a need basis. Openings are used for various reasons, such as the possibility of installing utilities and for architectural reasons. However, the latest research studies suggest that the use of large-sized openings in infill plates calls for the use of heavy stiffeners or special measures for ensuring system stability. The seismic behavior of two SPSWs with large unstiffened opening (one with a rectangular opening in the middle of the plate and the other with two oval openings on the sides of the infill plate) was studied experimentally and...
