Project: Experimental and Analytical Investigation of Nonrectangular Walls Under Multidirectional Loads
28 Jul 2009 | Series | Contributor(s): , ,
Previous laboratory testing of T-shaped walls loaded uniaxially along the direction of the stem of the T has indicated that these walls can be detailed using methods similar to those used for rectangular walls. However, multidirectional loading of these walls has not been carried out at large...
