Abstract
Phase 2 of the CASH benchmark was dedicated to the response prediction of multi-storey reinforced concrete (RC) walls used as seismic resisting members in nuclear power plants. Nonlinear static and dynamic analyses have been carried out to check the reliability of non-linear finite element analysis (NLFEA) to assess the seismic capacity of reinforced concrete walls. Authors attended the benchmark by modelling RC walls using multi-layered shell elements and by adopting a self implemented crack model. The paper describes modelling strategies and some critical issues of the Eurocode 8 prescrip-tions for the shear demand and shear capacity evaluation of multi-storey RC walls.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
