Abstract
The double steel plate concrete composite shear walls are widely used in nuclear power structures due to good bearing capacity, deformation capacity and radiation resistance. The shear walls of nuclear power structures are totally different with that in the civil buildings, which have the characteristics of small shear span to depth ratio and large thickness. On the basis of summarizing and analysing the test results of double steel plate composite shear wall, finite element models were established to verify the validity of the simulated results. Moreover, the influence of steel ratio, axial compression ratio and shear span to depth ratio on the bearing capacity of composite shear wall was studied. The results showed that the composite shear wall has good mechanical performance. Steel ratio and shear span to depth ratio had remarkable influence on the bearing capacity of the composite shear walls.
