The aim of this\r\nwork is to propose the experimental work conducted on CSW having\r\nL section folded plate (L shape steel made-up sections) as\r\nlongitudinal reinforcement in boundary regions. The study in this\r\npaper present the experimental test conducted on CSW having L\r\nsection folded plate as longitudinal reinforcement in boundary\r\nregions. The tested 1\/3 geometric scaled CSW has aspect ratio of 3.2.\r\nL-shape structural steel materials with 2L-19x57x7mm dimensions\r\nwere placed in shear wall boundary zones. The seismic behavior of\r\nCSW test specimen was investigated by evaluating and interpreting\r\nthe hysteresis curves, envelope curves, rigidity and consumed energy\r\ngraphs of this tested element. In addition to this, the experimental\r\nresults, deformation and cracking patterns were evaluated, interpreted\r\nand suggestions of the design recommendations were proposed.","references":"[1] S.
