Shear walls are a commonly used structural element to stabilize the building against horizontal loads and shear deformation.
EK187
When the location and distribution of the walls are such that their centre of resistance coincides closely with the centre of the mass and the geometric centroid of the complete […]
EK186
The distribution of horizontal loads between stability wall elements is generally determined by the position and stiffness of the walls in the structure.
EK179
Horizontal loads on the structure are transmitted to the vertical stabilizing cores, shear walls, structural frames or bracing, etc., by the floors and roofs which act as rigid horizontal diaphragms.
