4. Framing and mixed wall systems
4.1 Mixed wall types and sizing criteria
Mixed wall systems have similar shear strength and shear stiffness to reinforced concrete walls. However, the steel sections forming the periphery of these walls provide a significant increase in flexural strength, which, compared with a reinforced concrete solution, delays the formation of a plastic hinge at the foot of the wall.
As with reinforced concrete structures, there are two levels of ductility for dissipative composite...
