Abstract
Advantages of considering nonlinear behavior in the design of frame-wall structures are discussed in terms of results from an experimental study. Four small-scale multistory structures were subjected to base motions generated by an earthquake simulator. Samples of measured response of the models are presented to illustrate behavior of the models, to justify nonlinear design considerations, and to demonstrate simplified analysis procedures for design.
