Shear wall buildings are commonly used for residential purposes and can house from 100 to 500 persons per building.
Shear stiffness the effective shear stiffness for the elastic range of bi linear idealisation is defined by a reduction factor v as fol lows.
A series of nonlinear analyses are performed for shear wall under wind and gravity loading considering well known constitutive relations for concrete including the tension stiffening behavior.
K v eff k 1 where k v eff denotes the secant shear stiffness at the yield state and k v is the uncracked shear stiffness defined in park.
Assumed properties shall not exceed half of gross section properties unless a cracked section analysis is performed.
Shear walls perform dual action that is theyas lateral as well as gravity load bearing elements.
Aci 318 11 proposes taking the effective stiffness of cracked wall sections to be 0 35 of the elastic stiffness of the section and the uncracked stiffness to be 0 70.
