About this document
Shear Strength of Low-Rise Walls Study by Islam Shokry is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1. The document reports on tests of 8 low-rise concrete shear wall specimens with boundary elements. Variables included reinforcement amounts and the height-to-length ratio. 2. Specimens were subjected to loading and load reversals to study strength, energy absorption, and performance under seismic loads. 3. Results showed that current design procedures underestimate the strength of low-rise shear walls. Minimum horizontal and vertical reinforcement is recommended to control cracking.
