by John W. Wallace, (A.M.ASCE), Clarkson Univ, Potsdam, NY, USA,
Sharon L. Wood, (A.M.ASCE), Clarkson Univ, Potsdam, NY, USA,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Structures Congress XII

Abstract:

An overview of seismic design issues and current experimental research for walls with unsymmetrical cross-sections is presented. The experimental studies include approximately 1/4 and 1/3 scale studies of C- and T-shaped wall cross-sections, respectively.
