CENTER OF RIGIDITY AND CENTER OF SHEAR IN WALL-FRAME SYSTEMS

Center of Rigidity and Center of Shear in Wall-Frame Systems

In case of torsion in buildings, additional earthquake forces affect the structure and internal forces and displacements increases.For this reason, it is important to place the bearing systems in the plan as much as possible to reduce the torsion effect.To minimize torsion effects, the center of mass and center of rigidity should be as close as pos
