Study of Seismic Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Shear Wall

The study delves into reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls which function as the main elements to resist earthquake lateral forces. The research analyzes ductility performance features as well as stiffness and energy dissipation capacity while investigating failure modes when exposed to various seismic conditions. The assessment of crucial parameters depends on both nonlinear finite element analysis and experimental study reviews to determine wall dimension ratios and reinforcement approaches and axial force limits and boundary elements that deliver confinement capabilities. Examining real seismic responses through simulation models produces detailed duplicates for analyzing the combination of hysteresis characteristics along with crack propagation patterns and load-displacement performance patterns. Wall confinement procedures that create suitable axial loads will enhance both ductility performance and energy dissipation aptitude. Improving safety during earthquake conditions in high-risk areas requires designers to focus on complete planning details for designing reinforced concrete shear walls.
