Dynamic Analysis of Stiffened Coupled Shear Walls with Flexible Connections under Earthquake Effects
Abstract In modern tall buildings, the lateral loads that arise from the effects of winds and earthquakes, are resisted by shear walls. However, wall openings are inevitably present due to windows, doors and service ducts. These features turn simple shear walls into coupled ones, which can be considered as two smaller walls, coupled together by a system of connecting beams. For a quick initial assessment of the foregoing type of structural component, the elegant method called Continuous Connection Method (CCM) has been widely used. In this method, the connecting beams are assumed to have the same properties and spacing along the entire height of the wall. Consequently, the discrete system of connecting beams can be assumed to be replaced by continuous laminae of equivalent stiffness capable of transmitting actions of the same type as the connecting beams. This modification enables the properties of the structure to be expressed as continuous functions of the longitudinal coordinate x (see Fig. 1).
