Abstract
To perform dynamic response analysis of reinforced concrete framed shearwalls, the following three parts are required: (1) the truss model theory for the primary curves of framed shearwalls; (2) the analytical model of the hysteresis loops which describe the behaviour of the walls under repeated loading and unloading; and (3) the dynamic model used for dynamic analysis. The combination and implementation of these three components form a useful tool for the dynamic analysis of such walls. Using this tool, numerical experimentations are executed to study the effect of material properties on the dynamic response of such walls. It was found that higher concrete strength has greater ductility factor, less ductility demand and less energy index.
