    1) The document summarizes research on modeling and testing of coupling beams between reinforced concrete core walls in tall buildings. 2) Laboratory tests were conducted on coupling beam specimens with different aspect ratios, transverse reinforcement configurations, and with or without reinforced concrete slabs. 3) Both test results and modeling showed that the load-deformation response of coupling beams is similar regardless of transverse reinforcement detailing, and that reinforced concrete slabs provide only a modest increase in strength with little impact on ductility. Simple nonlinear models were able to accurately capture the response.

    The document discusses testing and modeling of coupling beams in tall concrete core wall buildings. A test program was conducted to investigate the behavior of coupling beams under various parameters. Simple nonlinear models were able to accurately capture the load-deformation response of the beams.

    The test program investigated the behavior of coupling beams with varying aspect ratios and transverse reinforcement configurations, as well as the impact of adding reinforced concrete or post-tensioned slabs.

    The main parameters that were varied in the test specimens included the aspect ratio, transverse reinforcement configuration (full section confinement vs diagonal confinement), concrete strength, and inclusion or not of reinforced concrete or post-tensioned slabs.
