Optimum Positioning of Shear Walls for Minimizing the Effects of Lateral Forces in Multistorey-Buildings
Shear walls are the most commonly used lateral load resisting systems in high rises. They have high plane stiffness and strength which can be used to simultaneously resist large horizontal loads while also supporting gravity loads. Hence it is necessary to determine effective and ideal locations of...
