Abstract

Due to mechanical performances of brace and steel plate, mechanical properties of semi-rigid joints and its construction and installation, semi-rigid steel frame-braced steel plate shear wall system is proposed. Nonlinear static analysis with parameters (thickness of plate, type of brace, size of brace and the ratio of span to height) changed of a single-span and single-floor semi-rigid steel frame-braced steel plate shear wall system illustrates that braced steel plate shear walls contributes obviously to bearing capacity and lateral rigidity of semi-rigid steel frame. Also, the finite element analysis (by ANSYS) show that semi-rigid steel frame-braced steel plate shear wall system has excellent ductility.
