2. Effects of cracking of coupling beams onhigh rise towers subjected to wind load
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : In high rise towers, reinforced concrete elevator shafts with coupling beams are extensively used as a principal structural element to resist lateral loads. The lateral load resistance of the tower is dominantly dependent on the stiffness of the load-bearing walls, and coupling beams connecting them. READ MORE
