The squat flanged reinforced concrete (RC) walls have been widely utilized in nuclear
power plant and building structures. Nevertheless, the empirical equations in current design …

Industrialized building system (IBS) is the term used to represent the concept of
prefabrication, and it has been widely used worldwide. In the last few decades, all the …

Squat reinforced concrete shear walls with boundary elements (SRCSW-BE) are used in
special structures (eg, nuclear facilities) to resist lateral seismic loads. However, several …

Although low aspect ratio shear walls are widely used in safety-related nuclear structures,
their hysteretic behavior, including peak strength and effective elastic stiffness, has not been …

This study delved into the shear and sliding performances of RC shear walls subjected to
combined axial tension and lateral shear, which may occur at the bottom of high-rise …

The flanged, barbell, and rectangular squat reinforced concrete (RC) walls are broadly used
in low-rise commercial and highway under and overpasses. The shear strength of squat …

Under strong earthquakes, reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls at the bottom of high-rise
buildings may experience an internal force state of alternating tension-shear (-bending) and …

Twelve low-aspect-ratio rectangular reinforced concrete (RC) walls were built and tested
under reversed cyclic loading at the University at Buffalo. One of the objectives of the …
