Shear Wall Design

This document provides details on the design of a shear wall, including: 1) Calculating the seismic mass and design loads on the wall based on dead, live, and seismic loads. 2) Determining the required dimensions of the wall and confined boundary element to resist the design loads and moments. 3) Sizing the reinforcing bars needed in the wall based on the load calculations and code requirements.

SHEAR WALL DESIGN

Structural layout (building plan)


Design steps
• Determination of shear centre
• Establish torsional rigidity
• Determine DF for shear, moment and torsion
• Determine Design factored design load (1.35Gk + 1.5Qk)
• Proportion lateral forces, moments and torsion
• Determine dimension of confined boundary element
• Design required re-bar
Determination of shear centre
Seismic mass

• Determine building mass by considering both dead and live loads in


each floor respectively

From design data:

•  Wall 12, Level 5


• Thickness of SW = 400mm
• Total story height = 3,500mm
• Concrete grade = C30, Re-bar grade = HY (fy =460MPa)
• Cover to main re-bar = 30mm

• Area borne by the wall:


Z=
Y=
Area = 7.500 x 3.200 = 24.00m2
Load Analysis:

Dead Load:
Roof slab: 3.6kN/m2 x 24m2 = 86.4kN
Beams: 0.6 X 0.35 X 24 x 2.5 = 12.6kN
Floor slab at levels: 7-6: 86.4kN x2 = 172.8kN
Wall SW: 24kN/m3 x 0.4 x 5.00 x 3.5 x3 = 504kN
Superdead: 0.75kN/m2 x 24m2 x 3 = 54kN
TOTAL DL: 830kN

Live Load:
At roof level: 2kN/m2 x 24m2 = 48kN
At level 7: 2kN/m2 x 24m2 = 48kN
At level 6: 0.9 x 48 = 43.2kN
TOTAL DL: 139.2kN

Design Load, Nd as per EC: Nd = (1.35 x 830) + (1.5 x139.2) = 1,329kN


• Total story shear: 7,102kN
• Total story moment: 61,700kNm

• Considering Shear wall No.12:


Design Shear = 0.147 x 7,102 = 1,044kN
Design Moment, My = 0.147 x 61,700 = 8,838kNm
Design Axial Load, Nd = 1,329kN
Determine dimension of confined boundary element

•  Story height , hs = 3500mm


• Proposed shear wall size, bwo = 400mm
• Max. length of shear wall, lw = 5000mm
• Min. length of confined boundary element, lc

or

Thus take lc = 750mm


Determine dimension of confined boundary element

•  Min. width of confined boundary element, bw

Since
but less than
then;

As the proposed bwo(400mm) > bw(233mm)

Take bw = bwo = 400mm


Reinforcement design
•  b = 400mm
• h = 5000mm
• Concrete class = C30
• c = 30mm
• Dia. of main bar = 16mm
• D = 5000 – 30 – 8 = 4962mm

 
Use design chart with d/h = 0.95
•  Design the wall as the beam

Again because, K (0.03) < 0.043;

take z =

Bending re-bar:
• Minimum reinforcement (EC2:1-2004 Cl. 9.6.2 )

• As min. = 0.002Ac = 0.002 x 400 x 5000 = 4,000mm2

Provide Y16 – 150 (As = 2,681mm2/m) in each face


[Cl.9.6.2 (2)]

[Note: check max. As not to exceed 0.04%Ac]

Horizontal bars (EC-2:1-2004 cl. 9.6.3)


25%As,v = 25% 5,362 = 1,341mm2
0.001Ac = 0.001 x 400 x 5000 = 2,000mm2

Provide Y12 – 200 (As = 1,131mm2/m) in each face
