| Abstract: |
Hybrid Coupled Shear Walls are an innovative seismic‐resistant system that aims at merging the advantages of the classical Coupled Shear Walls with the dissipative capacity and easy‐to‐repair characteristics of steel elements. They are constituted by a reinforced concrete wall connected to two side steel columns by dissipative steel links. Depending on the stiffness/strength of the links, it is possible to obtain different distributions of the seismic forces between the wall and the columns. As resulting from previous research activity on this topic, the seismic behavior of this structural system can be strongly influenced by the higher modes, especially for mid/high‐rise buildings, making classical pushover analyses unable to catch the correct behavior. In this regard, the paper presents the comparison between the results of Incremental Dynamic Analyses and of different Pushover Analyses, giving indications about a more reliable procedure for the assessment of the seismic performance through suitable pushover analysis. |
