Seismic Performance of Special Structural Walls Using Overlapping Hoops Instead of Closed Hoops

Abstract In this study repeated cyclic loading tests were carried out on seven shear wall specimens, which were fabricated in a real scale. The purpose of these experiments is to investigate the difference on the seismic performance of the wall depending on two methods of confining longitudinal bars...
