Bolted splice details for Composite Plate Shear Walls—Concrete Filled (SpeedCore)

Bolted splice details for Composite Plate Shear Walls—Concrete Filled (SpeedCore)

Provide experimentally-verified bolted splice details for Composite Plate Shear Walls—Concrete Filled (SpeedCore) for use across the nation in those regions where field bolted splices are preferred over welded ones. This includes non-seismic regions, regions of moderate seismicity, and where wind demands exceed elastic seismic demands and govern splice design. Cyclic response up to the limits permitted by the ASCE Pre-standard for Performance-Based Wind Design may also be considered.
