Seismic Research and Development of Steel Plate Concrete Composite Shear Wall

Shear wall is the main component that resists the lateral force for high-rise buildings. With the rapid development of high-rise buildings, especially the super high-rise buildings, requirements for seismic performance of shear walls have become more sophisticated. The steel plate concrete composite shear wall shows good seismic performance. It has made rapid development through the research of seismic performance in the way of seismic design to the practical engineering application of steel plate concrete composite shear wall. Recent research situation and prospect of composite shear wall around the world have been introduced in this paper.
