BOUNDARY ELEMENTS
Factors governing seismic behavior of shear walls:
DuctilityStiffnessSoil structure interaction effectsPeriod of structure
SEISMIC BEHAVIOUR OF WALLS
15
DuctilityRatio of displacement at maximum load to that at yield Highly desirable property for shear walls
StiffnessProperty of element to resist displacementMore stiffer wall need more force to deflect it

Soil- structure interactionStructural damage directly related to depth of soil overlying the rock and period of vibration of soilUnderstanding relationship between period of vibrations of soil and structure is important

Some important conclusions from extensive experimental studies on seismic behaviour of shear walls:High axial load ratio is undesirable for structures [7]Damage always initiate from top of splices. So splice impacts seismic performance [1]

For accurate evaluation of seismic demands soil structure interaction must also be considered [8]Shear walls with staggered openings produce better results in earthquakes [4]

Shear walls are efficient in resisting earthquakes More efficient with increased ductility Soil structure interaction studies are important ALR ratio has adverse influence on seismic
performance of shear walls Shear walls with staggered openings are more
effective than walls with regular openings
