Abstract

The steel plate shear wall (SPSW) system has emerged as a promising lateral load resisting
system. In recent years. Steel plate Shear walls are vertical elements of the horizontal force resisting
system. Steel plate shear walls have been used more and more in the steel Structures to resist earthquake
and wind forces. This system offers several advantages as compared to the other usual lateral load resisting
systems. Steel saving speed of erection, reduced foundation cost, and increased usable space in buildings
are some apparent advantages of the steel plate shear walls. Steel plate shear walls also provide major
stiffness against building storey drift for the multi storey building. In this review describes the analysis and
design of multi storey building frame with Steel plate shear wall (SPSW). In this review equivalent static
analysis is carried out for steel moment resisting building frame having (G+6) storey situated in zone V.
The analysis and design of steel plate shear wall and the multi storey building are carried out using
Software E-TABs 2016. In this review comparatives study of Steel plate shear wall and frame without shear
wall has been taken. The main parameters considered in this review are to compare the seismic
performance of buildings such as; bending moment, shear force, deflection, time history, storey drift, base
shear. The result from Steel plate shear wall review is that the steel plate increases stiffness of the
structure.
