Title: Behavior, Analysis and Design of Complex Wall Systems (NEES-2005-0104)

Year Of Curation: 2014

Description: The laboratory testing presented here was conducted as part of a larger effort that employed laboratory testing and numerical simulation to advance understanding of the earthquake behavior, analysis and design of concrete walls. The research effort was sponsored by NSF through the NEES Research Program (Grant No. 0421577) with supplemental funding provided by the Charles Pankow Foundation. Eight planar rectangular, planar coupled and c-shaped wall specimens were tested quasi-statically to generate performance and response data.
