Design of Shear Wall
Design of Shear Wall
Material constants
Grade of concrete = M25
Grade of steel = Fe415
Preliminary dimensioning
Horizontal length of the wall, L = 4m
Thickness of the wall, t = 250mm
The minimum thickness of shear walls shall not be less than 150mm
(As per IS 13920: 2016, clause 10.1.2)
Hence, the thickness provided is safe.

where, h = longer dimension of rectangular link measured to its outer face, which
does not exceed 300mm.
Assume 40mm clear cover and 8mm & lateral ties
h = 600-(2×32) = 536mm >300mm
Hence, introduce a cross tie as shown in IS 13920: 2016, Fig 10 (C).

b) 6 times diameter of smallest longitudinal bar = 6×16-96mm
c) 100mm
Therefore provide 8mm & lateral ties @ 95mm c/c
Details of reinforcement
Provide 10mm bars @250mm c/c on both faces horizontally and vertically on the web.
On the boundary element provide 6-16mm bars and provide 8mm lateral ties @ 95mm c/c
