SUMMARY
Still few works in literature have been dedicated to the effectiveness of aluminum shear panels for seismic retrofit of steel and reinforced concrete buildings. To bridge this gap, this paper proposes a design method of aluminum multi-stiffened shear panels that accounts for both the nonlinearity in the structure and dampers-structure interaction and gives an optimal distribution of the shear panels over the height of the building. Metal shear panels as dissipative devices Firstly applied in the late 1920s as cladding panels, the metal shear panels (MSPs) have then been widely used in . . .
