1.1 Introduction
A model based on beam theory (Bernoulli or Timoshenko) is ineffective for reproducing shear deformations and stresses in very weakly slender structures. .
A simplified alternative for representing the behaviour of reinforced concrete walls is the use of the Equivalent Reinforced Concrete (ERC) technique ( – ).
