Stiffness for linear seismic analysis of concrete walls.
A reduction factor is usually applied to the stiffness to account for the effect of cracking in linear analysis.
However the basis for these stiffness reduction factors or stiffness expressions is not clearly presented in these standards and their applicability to nuclear plant elements could not be assessed nureg cr 6926.

Empirical evidence suggests that the use of a large wall density and thus a large lateral stiffness has contributed to remarkable performance for these buildings following large earthquakes.
The effective stiffness of a wall structure is determined by obtaining the linear.

Chapter to determine a linear flexural stiffness that can be used for the linear seismic analysis.
Stiffness is an important parameter for the seismic design of shear walls which is related to the shear force distribution of each wall member.
The appropriate stiffness for the linear analysis is an effective initial stiffness consistent with the bilin ear force deformation assumptions that were used to establish this traditional design approach.
