attachment details adopted for installation <strong>of</strong> ALC panels were very satisfactoryin terms <strong>of</strong> the detachment <strong>of</strong> the panels from the frame response.(3) Pushover analyses conducted prior to the tests predicted the elastic stiffness veryreasonably and the strength with a good amount <strong>of</strong> conservatism. This indicatesthat present numerical analyses commonly adopted in daily design practices areadequate as design tools.(4) Including strain hardening after yielding and composite action, numericalanalyses were able to duplicate the cyclic behavior <strong>of</strong> the test structure with greataccuracy, although a reasonable procedure to determine the degrees <strong>of</strong> hardeningand composite action is yet to be explored.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTThe tests presented in this paper were conducted as part <strong>of</strong> a research projectedentitled “Development <strong>of</strong> reliability seismic design in consideration <strong>of</strong> uncertaintiesassociated with both demand and capacity <strong>of</strong> structural systems.” The second writerwas the principal investigator <strong>of</strong> this project, and it was sponsored by the Ministry <strong>of</strong>Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (Basic Research Category S:14102028). The Twenty-First Century Center <strong>of</strong> Excellence (COE) Program awardedto the Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto <strong>University</strong> (Grand Number:14219301), supported the employment <strong>of</strong> the third writer. The writers express theirgratitude for the sponsorship. The writers are also grateful to Pr<strong>of</strong>. K. Inoue <strong>of</strong> Kyoto<strong>University</strong> and Messrs. Y. Fujita and T. Arai <strong>of</strong> Ohbayashi Corporation for theircontinuous support on the design, construction, instrumentation, and loading <strong>of</strong> thetest structure.REFERENCESMatsumiya, T., D.
