CONCLUSIONS Analytical Model • ABAQUS model developed for walls with openings • ABAQUS results compare well with DRAIN-2DX results and closed form results Parametric Investigation • Gravity and post-tensioning loads only • As fci increases, steel requirement increases significantly • As ho increases, steel requirement decreases, especially for longer walls • As lo increases, steel requirement increases, especially for shorter walls
CONCLUSIONS Design Approach • Utilizes a strut-and-tie model • Can be used to predict the ABAQUS results; and • To design the reinforcement above the openings • Asc to prevent cracking • Asf to minimize crack widths
REMAINING WORK • Finish design for lateral loads • Experimental verification (Lehigh Tests)
