【 摘 要 】

As part of a multi-institutional study of seismic analysis, behavior, design andperformance of the steel plate shear wall with coupling (SPSW-WC) system, an integratedanalytical, numerical, and experimental study was conducted on a small-scale, three-storySPSW-WC specimen. The small-scale specimen’s design was based on the scaling down of oneof the large-scale specimens that will be tested as part of the SPSW-WC program at theUniversity of Illinois. The concepts of dimensional analysis and similitude were used to scaledown the large-scale specimen. Analytical and numerical models were used to estimate thesmall-scale specimen’s ultimate strength and study its behavior under lateral loads. Theexperimental study consisted of a cyclic displacement loading test on the small-scale specimen.The system’s behavior was stable for much of the test, and the specimen was able to undergolarge roof displacements. The analytical, numerical, and experimental results are presented anddiscussed.
