To eliminate the use of a large number of connecting bolts for the cover panels in conventional buckling-restrained steel plate shear walls (BRSPSWs), T-hooked BRSPSW was proposed by using T-sectional stiffeners for restraining the out-of-plane deformation of the cover panels. With larger-sized flex...
