Composite Plate Shear Walls—Concrete Filled (C-PSW/CF) consists of two steel faceplates with concrete infill sandwiched in-between. The steel faceplates are connected to each other using tie bars that ...

There is a growing interest in using coupled composite plate shear walls/ concrete-filled (CPSW/CF) for high-rise building construction, particularly to optimize the design for wind and/or seismic ...

This behind-the-scenes video explores the complete manufacturing process of tractor rim plates, revealing the advanced ...

The document pertains to the nonproprietary concrete-filled composite steel plate shear wall core system that “shaved a whopping 10 months off the erection schedule of Seattle’s 58-story Rainier ...

Engineers estimate that in seismic zones alone there are tens of millions of sq ft of flat-plate systems reinforced using shear studs. The extent of their vulnerability to punching shear failure ...

Jaw options include a concrete pulverizer, shear, concrete cracker and a plate shear. Powered rotation through 360 degrees allows processing at most angles. The UP 45SV is a universal processor ...

Nabih Youssef, a leading California-based structural engineer and seismic design expert who was a pioneering advocate for the use of steel plate shear walls in areas of high seismic risk ...
