<p>This thesis studies the effect of-floor slabs on the static and dynamic behaviour of the shear wall structure. A single component has been analysed using the 'Matrix Transfer' technique along with Vlaspv's thin walled elastic beam theory. Experimental verification was done on a small scale plexiglas eight storey model in the form of a channel section for both static and dynamic loading. The thesis also deals with the ·analysis of the nonplanar shear walls coupled through floor beams subjected to static loading. The continuum approach along with Vlasov's theory h&s been used in the analysis. Experimental verification was done on a small scale plexiglas model in the form of two equal angles connected by eight floor beams at equal spacing.</p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (ME)
