Abstract
The steel plate shear wall with two-side connections, only connected with boundary frame beams, was tested under cyclic loading to discuss its hysteresis property and energy dissipating capacity. The results show that the shear wall has high initial stiffness and strength; that will diagonal tensile field formed at the later loading stage, the shear wall sustain lateral load and dissipate energy due to its post-buckling capacity; that the ductility coefficient of the shear wall is over 5.0, which meets the requirment of the current Chinese design codes. In addition, the finite element method (FEM)was used to study the influence of height-to-thickness ratio and length-to-height ratio on the skeleton curve. The simplified model and design methods to predict the skeleton curve were put forward for practical application.
