Reinforced concrete (RC) squat walls provide most of the structure lateral strength and stiffness to resist earthquakes and wind loadings in nuclear power plants and other buildings. A reduction factor is usually applied ...

Squat reinforced concrete (RC) walls are essential structural components in nuclear power facilities (NPP) and in many civil structures. An adequate prediction of the shear strength and displacement capacity of these ...

This thesis presents the results of the design of residential housing using welded wire mesh reinforcement (WWR) and the lineal evaluation of the shear walls reinforced with WWR under dynamic loadings. Typical residential ...
