Abstract | In this study, the gravity loads in reinforced concrete shear walls supported on transfer structures are investigated. Emphasis is placed on the shear-stress concentration effects on the supported shear walls owing to the distortion of the transfer structure. A simplified model is proposed to illustrate the fundamental physical interactions. Finite-element analysis is also conducted to study the influences of the symmetric and asymmetric shear-wall arrangements, positioning of supporting columns and span-to-depth ratio of the transfer structure. Non-linear behaviours encompassing the use of yielded stiffness at ultimate limit state, sequential construction and the creep of reinforced concrete under gravity loads are addressed. Various effects of modelling assumptions and simplifications on the stress redistribution of the transfer structure are investigated. Remedial measures are proposed, such as increasing the depth of the transfer girders using late-cast slabs, segmented upper shear walls and concrete of higher grade for critical regions. |
