Experimental testing on the structural capacity of coupling beams with non-anchored longitudinal rebars Open
Coupling beams are structural elements which connect shear walls to improve the lateral stiffness and allow to transfer shear forces, while possessing sufficient ductility to dissipate the energy produced due to the lateral displacement. A…
