In this paper, a number of 3-dimensional nonlinear finite element models of two T-shaped walls coupled by slab are created using 2-dimensional elements, varying in each o [...]

The behaviour of T-section walls in the direction parallel to the web is characterised by different strength and stiffness in the two possible loading directions, with th [...]

In this paper, the behaviour of T-shaped walls is determined by examining the relative effect of the web-flange ratio, the reinforcement percentage and the axial load on [...]

As part of the development of Direct Displacement-Based Design, a method for explicitly including P-∆ in the design process is presented. The differences in sensitivity [...]
