Abstract: To conduct systematically analytical study to this shear walls and to provide reliable scientific basis for the local standards, comparative experimental studies on superimposed slab shear walls and general shear walls under low cyclic loading were conducted. The structural failure feature, ductility, stiffness, energy dissipation were analyzed systematically. The seismic damage model based on stiffness and the seismic damage model based on displacement and energy were analyzed. The calculating results are in good agreement with the experimental phenomenon. The seismic damage model based on stiffness computed is more easy and could be used first.
