- Additional information
- This paper is one of the first to develop the idea of application of hybrid (steel/FRP) thin infill plates for shear walls. It proves that not only the self-weight and the ultimate capacity are improved, but significant increase of energy dissipation developed by such structural elements is achieved, which is of crucial importance for earthquake-resisting elements. The methodology used for this investigation is used for further research reflected in three journal papers and for developing of elements included in the Impact Case Study “Innovative walls for affordable housing”.
