INTERACTION-BASED DESIGN TABLES FOR TRANSFER BEAMS SUPPORTING IN-PLANE LOADED SHEAR WALLS

摘要

The analysis and behaviour of transfer beams that support in-plane loaded shear walls have been receiving added emphasis owing to their importance in connection with the design of tall buildings. In this paper, analysis and structural behaviour of transfer beams supporting in-plane loaded shear walls are presented, where emphasis is placed on the interaction between the transfer beam and the supported shear wall.
