Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of SteelPolymer Perforated Shear Walls

Abstract

This article tries to numerically and experimentally investigate the behavior of perforated composite shear walls (Perforated-CSSW). For this purpose, a specific number of experimental samples have been subjected to loading processes under existing regulations and rules. According to their aspect ratios, samples have been divided into two groups of width to height ratio of 1.33 and 0.85. The first group (As-1.33) includes four samples with dimensions of 800 by 600 millimeters. One of these samples is selected as the reference non-fiber containing sample while the rest of the samples had been reinforced with Carbon Fibers. The entire samples of this group had 24 holes or circular openings sorted on the infill plate of the shear wall. After determination of a suitable loading protocol, the samples were subjected to a reciprocating loading and afterwards, hysteresis curve belonging to each sample was extracted. Results yielded from hysteresis curves of each sample are compared with other samples' and investigated thoroughly. In addition, numerical investigations have been applied along with experimental analyses. For this purpose, the aforementioned samples were modeled by the ABAQUS software. Ultimately, results obtained from numerical analyses have been compared with those obtained from experimental analyses.
