Capacity of Stiffened Steel Shear Panels as a Structural Control Damper
Abstract eng: This paper deals with the deformation capacity of shear panel dampers (SPD), which is one type of sacrificing members to be used in damage control design of structures. The deformation capacity indexes of SPD considered are the maximum deformation and cumulative inelastic deformation, and their target values are assumed to be 12% and 280%, respectively. To investigate if the SPD is of this capacity, an extensive numerical analysis is carried out. Validity of the analytical method is verified with experimental results. It is found that the present analysis can accurately predict the inelastic cyclic behavior of high performance SPDs.
