Shear walls are walls specifically designed to resist lateral loads, transferring the load from the wall above to the wall below and, ultimately, out through the foundation. This is a critical role in ...
When designing a building for lateral loads such as those generated by wind or earthquakes, engineers have several options. Lateral loads may be transferred to the foundation via braced frames or ...
Composite construction, which optimises the complementary strengths of materials such as steel and concrete, has become a mainstay in modern engineering. Central to these systems are shear connection ...
