Evaluation of Flexural Capacity of Reinforced Concrete Irregular Walls Based on Existing Experimental Data

The primary objective of this study is to develop the new equation that can predict the flexural strength of irregular walls by applying the concept of the effective width which is used in current codes. Results obtained from this data analysis are as follows : 1. It is conservative to use PCI provision and ACI code as the effective width for evaluating the flexural capacity of irregular walls 2. The result of this study shows that the Paulay & Priestley's proposition is available for more exactly and safely predicting flexural capacity of irregular walls throughout a reduction factor.
