  7. Abstract:
  8. Seismic loads are still a challenge for structures and engineers invent and provide seismic resisting systems to resist better against it. Concrete shear walls are well-known seismic resisting system that has had an acceptable performance in occurred seismic events. This system costs noticeable amount of time and material. Fiber-reinforced concretes can be useful to reduce negative effects and provides more positive effects like tensile strength, ductility, impact resisting and etc. Also changes in wall appearance such as corrugating helps to improve shear wall performance as it improves other kinds of plates and shell shaped members in structures. In this thesis, the focus is on “corrugated fiber reinforced concrete shear wall” that is a composition of improving ways. In concrete structures the compressive strength has an important roll between concrete properties. Also in shell and plate shaped members, thickness of the shell or plates effects on buckling conditions and force, also it ultimately influences collapse or stability of shells and plates. Because of above reasons, concrete compressive strength and wall thickness are assumed as variable parameters of concrete wall. Three different compressive strengths (30MPa, 60MPa and 90MPa) and also three different wall thicknesses (5cm, 10cm and 15cm) are assumed. The concrete shear wall is joined with a steel frame which is made of sections that have high sectional properties among rolled-steel shapes sections. Described structure is studied with pushover analysis and recommended drift by well-known codes
