STR.C2 - Concrete Shear WallsΒΆ

The following models are available:

STR.C2.H.HC | Structural, Concrete Shear Walls, High-Rise, High-Code

Structural components represent the structural system in the building.
Structural System: The vertical components of the lateral force-resisting system in these buildings are concrete shear walls that are usually bearing walls. In older buildings, the walls often are quite extensive, and the wall stresses are low, but reinforcing is light. In newer buildings, the shear walls often are limited in extent, generating concerns about boundary members and overturning forces.
High-Rise Building with more than 8 stories.
Design Level Approximate Basis:
Post-1975 construction in UBC Seismic Zone 4, NEHRP Map Area 7.

Suggested Block Size: 1 EA (round up to integer quantity)


STR.C2.H.LC | Structural, Concrete Shear Walls, High-Rise, Low-Code

Structural components represent the structural system in the building.
Structural System: The vertical components of the lateral force-resisting system in these buildings are concrete shear walls that are usually bearing walls. In older buildings, the walls often are quite extensive, and the wall stresses are low, but reinforcing is light. In newer buildings, the shear walls often are limited in extent, generating concerns about boundary members and overturning forces.
High-Rise Building with more than 8 stories.
Design Level Approximate Basis:
1941-1975 construction in UBC Seismic Zone 2B, NEHRP Map Area 5
