ANALISYS OF COUPLED SHEAR WALLS
ANALISYS OF COUPLED SHEAR WALLS
(OP)
Hello fiends and colleagues of this forum...
I need for academical purpouses, the formulas to calculate the maximun displacement at the top of a coupled shear wall subjected to a triangular loading and also to a concentrated load at the top, using the laminar method (approximate) suggested by Riko Rosman, this approach is rewied at the ACI journal vol 61,June 1964, but i havent found this journal. If anyone can send me the formulas or send me any document where they appear, i would be really grateful, ive been trying to obtain those formulas on the internet without success.
thank you in advance for your help...

You may be able to model the system with a finite element program using a 'softer' layer representing the headers...
I seem to recall that the effect was to yield a moment diagram that was similar to a propped cantilever... wl^2/8 and not wl^2/2

Good luck
