The design of coupled frame-wall structures for seismic actions

A methodology for the design of reinforced concrete frame-wall structures for seismic resistance is presented. By using capacity design principles, plasticity is restricted to well detailed beam and wall base hinge zones where energy is expected to be dissipated primarily via the flexural yielding....
