ABSTRACT
A recent earthquake in India on 26 th January, 2001 caused considerable damage to a
large number of RCC high-rise buildings (number of storey varies from 4 to 15) andtremendous loss of life. The reasons were: (a) most of the buildings had soft and weakground storey that provided open space for parking; (b) poor quality of concrete in
columns and (c) poor detailing of the structural design. Therefore, this particularincident has shown that designers and structural engineers should ensure to offeradequate earthquake resistant provisions with regard to planning, design and detailing in
high-rise buildings to withstand the effect of an earthquake and minimize disaster.As anearthquake resistant system, the use of coupled shear walls is one of the potential
options in comparison with moment resistant frame (MRF) and shear wall framecombination systems in RCC high-rise buildings. Further, it is reasonably wellestablished that it is uneconomical to design a structure considering its linear behavior
during earthquake. Hence an alternative design philosophy needs to be evolved in theIndian context to consider the post- yield behavior wherein the damage state is evaluated
through deformation considerations. In the present context, therefore, performance-based seismic design (PBSD) has been considered to offer significantly improvedsolutions as compared to the conventional design based on linear response spectrum
analysis.
Since coupling beam mainly governs the behavior of coupled shear walls, this paperinvestigates the behavior of coupling beam through an analytical model. The next step is
to develop a design technique to obtain an adequate ductility of coupled shear wallsconsidering its ideal seismic behavior (stable hysteresis with high earthquake energydissipation). Parametric study is carried out to find the limitations along with remedial
action of this technique. Finally, nonlinear static analysis is considered to assess theproposed design technique. It has been recemmended that proposed des ign technique
can be considered to design the coupled shear walls under earthquake motion.

INTRODUCTION
The growth of population density and shortage of land in urban areas are two majorproblems for all developing countries including India. In order to mitigate these two

problems the designers resort to high-rise buildings, which are rapidly increasing innumber, with various architectural configurations and ingenious use of structural
materials. However, earthquakes are the most critical loading condition for all landbased structures located in the seismically active regions. The Indian subcontinent is
divided into different seismic zones as indicated by IS 1893 (Part 1) (2002), facilitating
the designer to provide adequate protection against earthquake. A recent earthquake inIndia on 26th January, 2001 caused considerable damage to a large number of RCC
high-rise buildings (number of storey varies from 4 to 15) and tremendous loss of life.The reasons were: (a) most of the buildings had soft and weak ground storey that
provided open space for parking; (b) poor quality of concrete in columns and (c) poordetailing of the structural design (http://www.nicee.org/eqe-iitk/uploads/EQR_Bhuj.pdf). Therefore, this particular incident has shown that
designers and structural engineers should ensure to offer adequate earthquake resistantprovisions with regard to planning, design and detailing in high-rise buildings to
withstand the effect of an earthquake to minimize disaster.
As an earthquake resistant system, the use of coupled shear walls is one of the potentialoptions in comparison with moment resistant frame (MRF) and shear wall framecombination systems in RCC high-rise buildings. MRF system and shear wall frame
combination system are controlled by both shear behavior and flexural behavior;whereas, the behavior of coupled shear walls system is governed by flexural behavior.However, the behavior of the conventional beam both in MRF and shear wall frame
combination systems is governed by flexural capacity and the behavior of the couplingbeam in coupled shear walls is governed by shear capacity. During earthquake, infilled
brick masonry cracks in a brittle manner although earthquake energy dissipates throughboth inelastic yielding in beams and columns for MRF and shear wall framecombination systems; whereas, in coupled shear walls earthquake energy dissipates
through inelastic yielding in the coupling beams and at the base of the shear walls.Hence, amount of dissipation of earthquake energy and ductility obtained from both
MRF and shear wall frame combination systems are less than coupled shear wallssystem in the high-rise buildings [Jain (1999), Englekirk (2003), Park and Paulay(1975), Penelis and Kappos (1997), Smith and Coull (1991), Naeim (2001), Fortney and
Shahrooz (2009), Harries and McNeice (2006), El-Tawil et al. (2010) & Paulay andPriestley (1992)]. However, the Indian codes of practice governing the earthquake
resistant design, such as IS 1893 (Part 1) (2002) and IS 4326 (1993) do not providespecific guidelines with regard to earthquake resistant design of coupled shear walls. Onthe other hand, IS 13920 (1993) gives credence to the coupled shear walls as an
earthquake resistant option but it has incorporated very limited design guidelines of
coupling beams that are inadequate for practical applications. It requires furtherinvestigations and elaborations before practical use.
Further, it is reasonably well established that it is uneconomical to design a structure
considering its linear behavior during earthquake as is recognized by the Bureau ofIndian Standards [IS 4326 (1993), IS 13920 (1993) and IS 1893 (Part 1) (2002)]currently in use. Hence an alternative design philosophy needs to be evolved in the
Indian context to consider the post- yield behavior wherein the damage state is evaluatedthrough deformation considerations.
In the present context therefore, performance-based seismic design (PBSD) can be
considered to offer significantly improved solutions as compared to the conventionaldesign based on linear response spectrum analysis. Performance-based seismic design
8/10/2019 Conceptual Design of Coupled Shear Wall

(PBSD) implies design, evaluation, and construction of engineered facilities whoseperformance under common and extreme loads responds to the diverse needs and
objectives of owners, tenants and societies at large. The objective of PBSD is to producestructures with predictable seismic performance. In PBSD multiple levels of earthquake
and corresponding expected performance criteria are specified [ATC 40 (1996)]. This
aspect emphasizes nonlinear analyses for seismic design verification of any structure.This procedure gives some guidelines for estimating the possible local and global
damages of structures. A retrofitted structure can be evaluated with the help of PBSD.Similarly, economics in the form of life-cycle cost along with construction cost of the
structure is inherently included in PBSD [Prakash (2004)].
On the basis of the aforesaid discussion, an effort has been made in this paper to
develop a comprehensive procedure for the design of coupled shear walls.
INVESTIGATION OF COUPLING BEAM
Coupled shear walls consist of two shear walls connected intermittently by beams alongthe height. The behavior of coupled shear walls is mainly governed by the coupling
beams. The coupling beams are designed for ductile inelastic behavior in order todissipate energy. The base of the shear walls may be designed for elastic or ductile
inelastic behavior. The amount of energy dissipation depends on the yield momentcapacity and plastic rotation capacity of the coupling beams. If the yield momentcapacity is too high, then the coupling beams will undergo only limited rotations and
dissipate little energy. On the other hand, if the yield moment capacity is too low, thenthe coupling beams may undergo rotations much larger than their plastic rotationcapacities. Therefore, the coupling beams should be provided with an optimum level of
yield moment capacities. These moment capacities depend on the plastic rotation
capacity available in beams. The geometry, rotations and moment capacities of couplingbeams have been reviewed based o n previous experimental and analytical studies in thispaper. An analytical model of coupling beam has also been developed to calculate therotations of coupling beam with diagonal reinforcement and truss reinforcement.
Geometry of Coupling Beam
The behavior of the reinforced concrete coupling beam may be dominated by (1) shearor by (2) flexure as per ATC 40 (1996), FEMA 273 (1997) and FEMA 356 (2000).
Shear is dominant in coupling beams when 2 [Penelis and Kappos (1997)]
or 4
bb dL .There are various types of reinforcements in RCC coupling beams described as follows:
i. Conventional reinforcement
Conventional reinforcement consists of longitudinal flexural reinforcement andtransverse reinforcement for shear. Longitudinal reinforcement consists of top and
bottom steel parallel to the longitudinal axis of the beam. Transverse reinforcement
consists of closed stirrups or ties. If the strength of these ties 431 sV required shear
strength of the beam and the spacing these ties 3d over the entire length of the beam,
then stable hysteresis occurs, and such transverse reinforcement is said to be
conforming to the type now mandatory for new construction. If the transversereinforcement is deficient either in strength or spacing then it leads to pinched

4/50
hysteresis, and such reinforcement is said to be non-conforming [ATC 40 (1996),FEMA 273 (1997) and FEMA 356 (2000)].
According to IS 13920 (1993), the spacing of transverse reinforcement over a length of
d2 at either end o f a beam shall not exceed (a) 4d , and (b) 8 t imes the diameter of the
smallest longitudinal bar; however, it need not be less than 100 mm. Elsewhere, the
beam shall have transverse re inforce ment at a spacing not exceeding 2d . Whereas, the
shear force to be resisted by the transverse reinforcement shall be the maximum of:
(1) calculated factored shear force as per analysis, and (2) shear force due to formationof plastic hinges at both ends of the beam plus the factored gravity load on the span.
ii.
Diagonal reinforcement
Diagonal reinforcement consists of minimum four bars per diagonal. It gives a betterplastic rotation capacity compared to conventional coupling beam during an earthquake
when 5.1
b
b
d
L as per Penelis and Kappos (1997). The provisions for diagonal
reinforcement according to different codes have already been shown in
Table 1.1. If the diagonal reinforcement is subjected to compressive loading it maybuckle, in which case it cannot be relied on to continue resisting compressive loading.
Under the action of reversing loads, reinforcement that buckles in compression withloading in one direction may be stressed in tension with loading in the oppositedirection. This action may lead to low-cycle fatigue failure, so that the reinforcement
cannot continue to resist tensile forces. For this reason, it is necessary to ensure that thisreinforcement does not buckle. To prevent buckling due to compressive lo ading the
spacing between two adjacent diagonal bars should be greater than
12
dL [based on
buckling condition of a column]. It has also been noticed from Englekirk (2003) thatdiagonal reinforcement should not be attempted in walls that are less than 16 in.(406.4 mm) thick. Unless strength is an overriding consideration, diagonally reinforced
coupling beams should not be used.
iii. Truss reinforcement
Truss reinforcement represents a significant and promising departure from traditional
coupling beam reinforcements. The primary load transfer mechanism of the system isrepresented by the truss taken to its yield capacity. A secondary load path is created by
the global strut and tie. The load transfer limit state will coincide with yielding of a ll ofthe tension diagonals, provided the so-produced compression loads do not exceed thecapacity of the concrete compression strut. The yield strength of the primary truss is
governed by the tensile strength of its diagonal; whereas, the primary truss transfermechanism must include the shear travelling along the compression diagonal.
According to Penelis and Kappos (1997) & Galano and Vignoli (2000), when 1.5

L 4, truss reinforcement offers best seismic performance in comparison with
conventional and diagonal reinforcements. This type of reinforcement has not been used
till now. Detailing and placement problems must be carefully studied if its use iscontemplated. Clearly additional experimentation is required because the system
appears to have merit, especially in thin walls [Englekirk (2003)].

When the post yield rotational level is much higher compared to rotational level fortruss reinforcement then steel beam can be provided as a coupling beam. There are two
types of steel beams which are provided as coupling beams based on the followingfactors as per Englekirk (2003), AISC (1997), AISC (2000) and AISC (2005).
a.

Moment Capacity of Coupling Beam
The bending moment capacity of coupling beam depends on the geometry and material
property of coupling beam. Bending moment capacity and shear force capacity of thecoupling beam are related with each other. Englekirk (2003), Park and Paulay (1975),Paulay (1986), Harries et al. (1993), AISC (1997), AISC (2000) and AISC (2005)
describe these capacities as follows:

ii.
Shear dominant steel coupling beam
For I-section type of steel coupling beam, shear capacity (permissible shear resisted by
web only) for shear dominant steel coupling beam is denoted as fwysp tDtFV 26.0
and moment capacity isp

plastic section modulus.
iii.
Flexure dominant steel coupling beam
The transferable shear force ( nfV ) for flexure dominant steel coupling beam is the lesser

Mp2and spV ; where, pM is the moment capacity which is ypFZ .
Rotational Capacity of Coupling Beam
The rotation capacity in coupling beams depends upon the type of coupling beam. Whenthe rotational demand is greater than rotational capacity ofRCC coupling beam with conventional flexural and shear reinforcement then diagonal
or truss reinforcement type of coupling beam could be provided depending on the

Lratio. The steel coupling beam could be used when the rotational limit due to lateral
loading exceeds the rotation capacity of RCC coupling beam with truss reinforcement.Various research works conducted by Paulay (2002), Hindi and Sexsmith (2001),
FEMA356 (2000), Xuan et al. (2008) describe these capacities. ATC 40 (1996),
FEMA 273 (1997), FEMA 356 (2000), Galano and Vignoli (2000), Chao et al. (2006)and Englekirk (2003) describe the following rotational capacities for various types ofcoupling beams considering the behavior controlled by flexure and shear duringearthquake. Table 1, Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6 show these different
rotational capacities for various coupling beams.

are the conditions of the flexure
dominant steel coupling beam to prevent local buckling.
Specifications in Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4 can be questioned on the basis of the followingobservations:
1. As per Tables 1 and 2, the rotational capacities of beam depends on size of wall
( ww Lt , ) which is illogical.
2. When shear span to depth ratio 2 or aspect ratio 4bb dL , the behavior of
RCC coupling beams is controlled by shear. For this reason, as aspect ratio
b
b
d
L of
diagonally reinforced beam is less than 1.5, it means that the behavior of diagonally
reinforced beam is controlled by shear. Whereas,Tables 1 and 3 show that diagonally reinforced coupling beam behavior is controlled
by flexure which is not acceptable.
3. Conventional longitudinal reinforcement with non-conforming transversereinforcement is not accepted for new construction.
4. If the behavior of coupling beam is controlled by flexure [aspect ratio
b
b
d
L is greater
than 4], the length of the coupling beam is quite larger. According to
Munshi and Ghosh (2000), weakly coupled shear walls can be obtained for largerspan of the coupling beam and the design results of this type of coupled shear walls
are inconsistent with regard to the ductility and energy dissipat ion during earthquakemotion. Hence, it can be said that rotational capacity of coupling beams controlled

Investigative model
Figure 1 and Table 7 describe the investigative models considered for
ATENA2D (2006) analysis. The behaviors of all eighteen coupling beams weregoverned by shear. The load (F) was calculated based on the shear force in beam and
other parameters according to the provisions of FEMA 273 (1997) andFEMA 356 (2000).

Results and Discussions
The results using ATENA2D (2006) have been tabulated in Table 8. It shows thecomparison of rotational limit at CP level among FEMA 273 (1997),
FEMA 356 (2000) and ATENA2D (2006). There are a lot of diffeamong the results of
FEMA 273 (1997), FEMA 356 (2000) and ATENA2D (2006). The comparison has alsobeen extended for considering ATC 40s (1996) provisions. There are also big
differences between the results of ATC 40 (1996) and ATENA2D (2006) shown inTable 9. It may be because of limitations of ATENA2D (2006) software. However, it is
unexpected in FEMA 273 (1997), FEMA 356 (2000) and ATC 40 (1996) that therotational limit is more or less same, whereas, the parameters considered for calculationof shear strength are different. Therefore, it can be said that the parameters given in
FEMA 273 (1997), FEMA 356 (2000) and ATC 40 (1996) are questionable which havealready been discussed in this paper. It has also been observed from
Tables 8 and 9 that crack width in beam is quite significant although the rotationalvalues in ATENA2D (2006) are unexpectedly varying with
FEMA 273 (1997), FEMA 356 (2000) and ATC 40 (1996).

Hence, the results obtained from the above study using ATENA2D (2006) were foundunsatisfactory. Therefore, a new model has been created with some assumptions in the following
manner to carryout further study.
Assumptions:
The effect of gravity loads on the coupling beams has been neglected.
Deflection of the coupling beam occurs due to lateral loading.
Contra flexure occurs at the mid-span of the coupling beam. The confined concrete, due to the confining action is provided by closely spaced
transverse reinforcement in concrete, is assumed to govern the strength.
Total elongation in the horizontal direction (Figure 2) due to lateral loading can be written as:

PROPOSED DESIGN TECHNIQUE
In this paper an attempt has been made to develop a technique to design coupled shear wallsconsidering its ideal seismic behavior (stable hysteresis with high earthquake energy
dissipation). For preparing this design technique, symmetrical coupled shear walls have beenconsidered. Design/capacity curve of coupled shear walls is obtained at the collapse mechanismof the structure based on this technique. This technique is applied to both fixed base and pinned
base coupled shear walls. To start with, this technique is useful in selecting the preliminary
8/10/2019 Conceptual Design of Coupled Shear Wall

dimensions of symmetrical coupled shear walls and subsequently arrives at a final design stage.Further, this technique is particularly useful for designer, consultant and practicing engineer
who have no access to sophisticated software packages. A case study has been doneimplementing the technique with the help of Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet and the results have
also been validated.
Proposed Formulation
In Figure 3, the coupled shear walls are subjected to a triangular variation of loading withamplitude F1 at the roof level. The value of F1 is obtained corresponding to the CP level of
structure. Subsequently, the base shear and roof displacement can be determined. The procedureinvolving Figure 3, the assumptions, steps and mathematical calculation with initial value of F 1as unity has been illustrated as follows.
Figure 3 (a):Coupled shear walls Figure 3 (b): Free body diagramof coupled shear walls
Assumptions
The following assumptions are adopted for the design technique to obtain the ideal seismic
behavior of coupled shear walls.1. The analytical model of coupled shear walls is taken as two-d imensional entity.
2. Coupled shear walls exhibit flexural behavior.
3.
Coupling beams carry axial forces, shear forces and moments.4. The axial deformation of the coupling beam is neglected.
5. The effect of gravity loads on the coupling beams is neglected.6. The horizontal displacement at each point of wall 1 is equal to the horizontal displacement at
each corresponding point of wall 2 due to the presence of coupling beam.7. The curvatures of the two walls are same at any level.8. The point of contra flexure occurs at mid point of clear span of the beam.

9. The seismic design philosophy requires formation of plastic hinges at the ends of thecoupling beams. All coupling beams are typically designed identically with identical plastic
moment capacities. Being lightly loaded under gravity loads they will carry equal shearforces before a collapse mechanism is formed. All coupling beams are, therefore, assumed to
carry equal shear forces.
10.
In the collapse mechanism for coupled shear walls, plastic hinges are assumed to form at thebase of the wall and at the two ends of each coupling beam. In the wall the elastic
displacements shall be small in comparison to the d isplacements due to rotation at the base ofthe wall. If the elastic displacements in the wall are considered negligible then a triangular
displaced shape occurs. This is assumed to be the distributiondisplacement/velocity/acceleration along the height. The acceleration times the mass/weightat any floor level gives the lateral load. Hence, the distribution of the lateral loading is
assumed as a triangular variation, which conforms to the first mode shape pattern.
Steps
The following iterative steps are developed in this thesis for the design of coupled shear walls.
1)
Selection of a particular type of coupling beam and determining its shear capacity.2) Determining the fractions of total lateral loading subjected on wall 1 and wall 2.
3) Determining shear forces developed in coupling beams for different base conditions.4) Determining wall rotations in each storey.5) Checking for occurrence of plastic hinges at the base of the walls when base is fixed. For
walls pinned at the base this check is not required.6) Calculating coupling beam rotation in each storey.
7) Checking whether coupling beam rotat ion lies at collapse prevention level.8) Calculating base shear and roof displacement.9) Modifying the value of F1for next iteration starting from Step (2) if Step (7) is not satisfied.
Mathematical Calculation
The steps which are described in above have been illustrated in this section as follows:
Step 1
The type of coupling beam can be determined as per Table 11 and shear capacity can becalculated as per section Moment Capacity of Coupling Beam.
Step 2
In Figure 3(b), free body diagram of coupled shear walls has been shown; and are fractionsof total lateral loading incident on wall 1 and wall 2, respectively, such that,
+=1.0 (8)For symmetrical coupled shear walls, moments of inertias of two walls are equal for equal depthsand thicknesses at any level. Further, curvatures of two walls are equal at any level. Hence based
on the Assumption (7), Equation (8) can be written as:== 0.5 (9)
8/10/2019 Conceptual Design of Coupled Shear Wall
19/50
Step 3
In this step, it is explained how to calculate the shear force developed in the coupling beams fordifferent types of boundary conditions. CSA (1994) and Chaallal et al. (1996) defined the degree
of coupling which is written as,
otM
lTDC
(10)
where, bw LLl ; T is the axial force due to lateral loading; Mot is total overturning moment at
the base of the wall produced due to lateral loading. For fixed base condition DC varies from 0 to1 and Equation (10) can also be written as:
cbb
w
a
b
LL
dkDC
(10a)
The above Equation (10a) is proposed by Chaallal et al. (1996); Nis the total number of storeys,k is constant and a, b and c are exponents which are given in
Table 12.Table 12:Values of constant k and exponents a, b and c
N k a b c

30 1.293 0.193 0.223 0.106
40 1.190 0.145 0.155 0.059
So based upon the above criteria and considering Equations (10) and (10a), shear forcedeveloped in the coupling beam could be determined as follows:

Pinned base condition:
In this study, pinned base condition has been introduced as one of the possible boundaryconditions for coupled shear walls. It can be constructed by designing the foundation for axial
load and shear force without considering bending moment. It is expected that stable hysteresiswith high earthquake energy dissipation can be obtained for considering this kind of basecondition.
DC is 1 for pinned base condition from the equation (10). Hence, the equation can be written as:

After obtaining , and V at each storey for the particular value of F1, bending moment valuesin each storey could be determined for each wall. Subsequently, curvature diagram for each wallis generated by using moment area method as adopted in the Microsoft excel spreadsheet; whichis required to determine the wall rotation in each storey. The following equations are considered
to calculate the wall rotation.Overturning moment at a distance x from base with respect to each wall can be written as:

i. Tensile forces at the base of wall 1 (T) as well as compressive forces at the base of wall 2 (C)are calculated due to lateral loading.
ii. Compressive loads at the bases of wall 1 and wall 2 are calculated due to gravity loading.

iii.Net axial forces at the bases of wall 1 and wall 2 are calculated, i.e.Net axial force = Tensile or Compressive force due to lateral loading (T or C)
Compressive load due to gravity loading.iv. Then, according to these net axial forces for the particular values of fck, bb, dandp, the yield
moment values at the bases of wall 1 and wall 2 can be determined from
P-M interaction curve [IS 456 (1978) & Jain (1999)]. Wherefck, bb, dandpare yield strengthof concrete, breadth of a section, depth of that section and percentage of minimum
reinforcement in that particular section, respectively; and P is the axial force and M is themoment; here net axial force is considered as P in the
P-M interaction curve.v. Therefore, if calculated bending moment value at any base of the two walls is greater than
yield moment value, plastic hinge at that base would be formed, otherwise no plastic hinge
would be formed.

The rotational limit for collapse prevention level of different types of RCC coupling beams andsteel beams are given in Table 11. The task was to check whether the rotations of beams attained

The F1 is modified as follows when the condition of Step 7 is not satisfied:To obtain the collapse mechanism of the structure, it is required to increase F1 with equal
increment until all coupling beams attain their rotation limit of CP level simultaneously.

Dead loads (DL) of 6.7 kN/m2 and live loads (LL) of 2.4 kN/m2 have been considered assuggested in Chaallal et al. (1996). Total gravity loading on coupled shear walls at section a -a
has been calculated as the sum of dead load plus 25 % LL as perIS 1893 (part 1) (2002) for floor; however, in case of roof only dead load is considered.

Wide column frame analogy [Mcleod (1966)] has been considered for modeling of coupled shearwalls in SAP V 10.0.5 (2000) and DRAIN-3DX (1993) as given in
Figure 6. In this analogy, shear walls are represented as two line elements (centre line of shearwall) and beams are represented as line elements (centre line of beam) by joining with each otherwith rigid link. Beam column elastic element (Type-17) and inelastic element (Type-15) are
considered for modeling.

Discussions of numerical results:
Figure 8(b) shows that the results obtained from proposed design technique for pinned baseconditions are almost similar with the results obtained from DRAIN-3DX (1993) and SAP V
10.0.5 (2000). Whereas, Figure 8(a) is showing a bit differences about the results obtained fromproposed design technique, DRAIN-3DX (1993) and SAP V 10.0.5 (2000) although samedimensions, same material properties and same loading were considered in all the three
techniques. However, the differences were not very high (5-10%). Table 14 is showing theresults about ductility obtained for fixed and pinned base conditions with the help of the Figures
8(a) and 8(b) and Section Calculation of Ductility. It is noticed that ductility for pinned basecondition is greater than fixed base conditions. It means that stable hysteresis with highearthquake energy dissipation can be obtained for coupled shear walls with pinned base.
The results obtained from the proposed design technique are satisfactory. However, it isnecessary to find the limitations of the proposed design technique. Therefore, in the following
section, parametric study is elaborately discussed to detect the limitations of the proposed designtechnique.
PARAMETRIC STUDYIt has been observed from the CSA (1994) and Chaallal et al. (1996) that the behavior of the
ductile coupled shear walls depends on degree of coupling, where degree of coupling dependsupon depth and length of the coupling beam as well as depth and height of the coupled shearwalls [Park and Paulay (1975) & Paulay and Priestley (1992)].
Therefore, this study has been restricted on length of the coupling beam and number of storiesas basic variables and other parameters are considered as constant. These parameters have been
considered in proposed method to make out effect on the behavior of coupled shear walls.Further, modifications to achieve ideal seismic behavior according to the proposed method havebeen included in this study.
Model for Parametric Study
A typical building with symmetrical coupled shear walls is shown inFigures 9(a) and (b). Coupled shear walls at section a-a have been considered to carry out theparametric study.

Loading Consideration
Dead loads (DL) of 6.7 kN/m2and live loads (LL) of 2.4 kN/m2have been considered as per thesuggestions made by in Chaallal et al. (1996). Total gravity loading on coupled shear walls at

Observed Behavior
To study the influence of length of the coupling beam (Lb) on the behavior of coupled shearwalls, length of the coupling beam is considered as 1 m, 1.5 m and 2 m for both fixed and pinned
base conditions. RCC coupling beam with conventional longitudinal reinforcement withconforming transverse reinforcement has been selected. Shear capacity in the coupling beam iscalculated as per Step 1. The rotational limit of coupling beam has been selected as per Step 7.
The study has been performed for coupled shear walls with number of stories 20, 15 and 10 forboth fixed and pinned base conditions.

Discussion of results for N = 20
The deflection for the case of pinned base condition is much higher than the case of fixed base
(Figure 10); however, the base shear for the case of pinned base condition is lower than the caseof fixed base (Figure 13). It shows satisfactory results based on the behavior of coupled shearwalls. Because, coupled shear walls with pinned base deflected more subjected to lesser lateral
loading in comparison with the coupled shear walls with fixed base and base shear is directlyvarying with the lateral loading (Equation 26). Since wall rotation is directly varying with the
length of the beam (Figure 11) and deflection is the summation of the wall rotation (Equation25), deflection is directly varying with the length of the beam (Figure 10). It has been alsoobserved that all beams reach to their rotational limit of CP level for pinned base condition;
however, very few beams reach to their rotational limit of CP level for fixed base condition(Figure 12). Hence, it can be said that coupled shear walls is behaving as a rigid body motion for
pinned base condition; which is expected.The explanations for fixed base condition (Figure 12)are given in the following manner:

i) The rotation of the cantilever wall is maximum at the free end of the wall. This rotationdecreases towards the base of the wall and is zero at the base for fixity.
ii) Fixed base coupled shear walls with short span coupling beam is behaving as a cantileverwall (Lb = 1m of Figure 11). It is also one of the behaviors of a coupled shear walls.
However, fixed base coupled shear walls with long span coupling beam does not show
cantilever wall (Lb= 1.5m and Lb= 2m of Figure 11) behavior.iii) Beam rotation is proportional to the wall rotation.
Therefore, it can be said from the above observations that coupled shear walls with short spancoupling beam (Lb= 1m) can be acceptable in comparison with the long span coupling beam (Lb
= 1.5m and Lb= 2m) although the behavior of all three coupling beams is governed by shearaccording to Table 11.With the help of Section Calculation of Ductility and Figure 13, ductility for pinned base
condition and fixed base condition has been calculated in the following table.

It has been observed from the above table that ductility is more for pinned base condition in
comparison with the fixed base condition and ductility increases with increase in length of the
coupling beam (Equations 24 and 27, Figures 10, 11 & 13).

Discussion of results for N = 10
Figures 20 and 21 show that beam rotat ion and capacity curve reach CP level for the case of Lb=
1 m with pinned base condition only. However, beam rotation and capacity curve do not reachthe CP level for the other cases while shear capacities in all coupling beams have been achieved.
It means that ideal seismic behavior (stable hysteresis with high earthquake energy dissipation)of coupled shear walls has only been achieved for Lb= 1 m with pinned base condition. Proposeddesign technique does not show ideal seismic behavior of coupled shear walls for Lb= 1 m, 1.5
m and 2 m with fixed base condition and Lb= 1.5 m and 2 m with pinned base condition. Now,remedial action has been considered in the following manner to obtain the ideal seismic
behavior.
Remedial Action for N = 10
The remedy for the cases of Lb = 1 m, 1.5 m and 2 m with fixed base condition and
Lb= 1.5 m and 2 m with pinned base condition to achieve CP level is mentioned below (Figures22 to 25). To obtain the CP level, it is required to increase the wall rotation. Since wall rotation[Equations (18) and (19)] is inversely varying to the Lw
3, it is required to decrease the Lw. It has
been observed from Figure 25 that the ideal seismic behavior of coupled shear walls has beenachieved.

Discussion of the above results
Figures 24 and 25 show that beam rotation and capacity curve reach CP level for all cases
although the results are not satisfactory for fixed base condition according to the explanationsgiven in Section For Number of Stories N = 20.
Hence, it can be said from the above results that proposed design technique is useful to designthe coupled shear walls during earthquake motion. To confirm it more, nonlinear static analysisis consisdered in the following manner to assess the proposed design technique.
ASSESSMENT OF PROPOSED DESIGN TECHNIQUE USING NONLINEAR STATIC
ANALYSIS
In this paper, nonlinear static analysis is carried out to determine the response reduction factorsof coupled shear walls at different earthquake levels.
Design Example
The following design example is presented for carrying out the non linear static analysis ofcoupled shear walls. These walls are subjected to triangular variation of lateral loading. The baseof the walls is assumed as fixed. Table 18 mentions the different parameters with dimensions and
material properties which have been considered to carry out the study. Figure 26(a) and Figure26(b) show the plan and sectional elevation of the coupled shear wall building, respectively. Theplace considered for this study is Roorkee and soil type for this place is medium (Type II);
maximum considered earthquake (MCE) level and design basis earthquake level (DBE) areconsidered for the study.

Loading considerationDead loads (DL) of 6.7 kN/m2and live loads (LL) of 2.4 kN/m2have been considered as givenin Chaallal et al. (1996). Total gravity loading on coupled shear walls at section a-a has been
calculated as the sum of dead load plus 25 % LL as perIS 1893 (part 1) (2002) for floor; however, in case of roof only dead load is considered.

Calculation of performance point
Place considered here is Roorkee which belongs to the seismic zone IV and Z is 0.24 as per IS1893 (part1) (2002). 5% damped elastic response spectra as per
IS 1893 (part1) (2002) are considered here as demand curve. DBE and MCE levels areconsidered for calculation of performance point (pp). Capacity curves are already obtained inFigure 27. The performance point has been calculated with the help of capacity spectrum method
of ATC 40 (1996) which is as follows:
Figure 28: Performance point at the MCE level for N = 20
In this case, modal mass co-efficient 1 = 0.616 and Mode participation factor
PF1 = 1.51 derived with the help o f modal analysis in SAP V 10.0.5 (2000). Figure 28 shows thatpp is the performance point. The base shear at the performance point (pp), Vb,pp= 1173.1 kN androof displacement at the performance point (pp), roof, pp= 0.31 m.

provision of CSA (1994) for coupling beam with conventional reinforcement.
CONCLUSIONS
From the above studies, the following recommendations have been made for the design of
coupled shear walls under earthquake motion.
(i)Design technique should be adopted for fixing the dimensions of coupled shear walls.
(ii)Coupled shear walls withN 15 with equal storey height m6.3h s can be designed with
an optimum ratio of 25.0L

Ib to obtain consistency
between the behavior with respect to the wall rotation and earthquake energy dissipation.
(iii)Pinned base condition can be provided at the base of the shear wall as this type of basecondition offers better nonlinear behavior in compare to the fixed base condition.
(iv)The behavior of coupling beam should be governed by shear.
