Product Description
Design Guide 20 addresses the history and design of steel plate shear walls. The guide includes design procedures and design examples for steel plate shear walls in both high-seismic and R = 3 applications. The design guide has been developed in accordance with ASCE 7-05 (Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures), ANSI/AISC 360-05 (Specification for Structural Steel Buildings), and ANSI/AISC 341-05 (Seismic Provisions for Structural Steel Buildings). Analytical and capacity-design methods presented in this design guide can be utilized with either LRFD or ASD load combinations. Only the LRFD method is used in the design examples.
