Abstract

This paper addresses the strength and deformation capacity of shear wall subjected to seismic loading using experiments and analysis. Two low-rise shear walls, with the same section design and the same aspect ratio (height/length) of 0.4 have been submitted to pseudo-dynamic (PSD) tests conducted at the ELSA laboratory of the Joint Research Centre are presented. Simulation of the behavior of the shear wall retrofitted by CFRP is accurately predicted by finite element modeling. The accuracy of modeling is confirmed by comparing the simulated response with experimental one.
