Abstract

In order to improve the lateral deformation capacity of the high strength concrete shear wall, partially confined end-zones are usually set in the both ends of the shear wall cross-section. According to the experimental results of 15 high strength concrete shear walls with flexural (flexural-shear) failure, the moment - curvature skeleton curve of this shear wall cross-section is simplified as four linear through cracking point, yield point, peak point and ultimate point. Based on the plane-section assumption, the bending moment and curvature expressions at cracking, yield, peak and ultimate state are derived. At the same time, the effect of partially confined end-zones on peak and ultimate moment-curvature are taken into account. The analysis results show that, the calculated values are in good consistent with the experimental data.
