(İnşaat) In structural engineering, a shear wall is a wall composed of braced panels (also known as shear panels) to counter the effects of lateral loads acting on a structure. Wind and earthquake loads are the most common loads braced wall lines are designed to counteract. Under several building codes, including the International Building Code (where it is called a braced wall line) and Uniform Building Code, all exterior wall lines in wood or steel frame construction must be braced. Depending on the size of the building some interior walls must be braced as well
A bearing wall designed to resist lateral forces from other than its own mass, acting in the plane of the wall
A wall (or partition) designed to take a load in the direction of the plan of the wall, as distinct from lateral loads perpendicular to the wall Shear walls may be designed to take lateral loads as well See Bearing wall
A wall that resists horizontal shear forces applied in the plane of the wall
In building construction, a rigid vertical diaphragm capable of transferring lateral forces from exterior walls, floors, and roofs to the ground foundation in a direction parallel to their planes. Examples are the reinforced-concrete wall or vertical truss. Lateral forces caused by wind, earthquake, and uneven settlement loads, in addition to the weight of structure and occupants, create powerful twisting (torsional) forces. These forces can literally tear (shear) a building apart. Reinforcing a frame by attaching or placing a rigid wall inside it maintains the shape of the frame and prevents rotation at the joints. Shear walls are especially important in high-rise buildings subject to lateral wind and seismic forces
A wall which is designed to brace a house against side to side earthquake or wind forces In wood frame houses, it is usually constructed by nailing plywood panels to wood studs according to an engineered pattern
