Abstract
SUMMARYTraditional shear wall structure has small space, is not flexible, causes waste of material and has bad economic efficiency. Through complete transformation of traditional shear wall, a new structure system has been created. The research and application of short‐leg shear wall structure calculation theory are based on the national codes, from which the short‐leg shear wall design principles are established. Traditional shear wall structure is discussed because of the world's first short‐leg shear wall structure design formation and development research. According to short‐leg shear wall force characteristics, horizontal displacement is divided into destructive storey drift and harmless storey drift; the formula for calculating the destructive storey drift is obtained, using destructive storey drift angle parameters and the change of main section height to control the deformation, to control structural rigidity and to ensure that the structural design attains excellence.
