The shear walls with a U or L shaped section are commonly employed in building structure to resist the forces imposed by earthquakes. An approximate method for analysis of space-frame with open-section shear walls subjected to lateral loading is presented in this paper. The presented method is an extensive proposal for Dr. Muto's D (distribution)-value method for seismic analysis of reinforced concrete building, where the D-value of open-section shear wall is eiven in the form of a matrix which consists of horizontal rigidity and torsional rigidity. The basic theory of the D-value matrix was presented in authors' previous paper. The method is convenient to hand calculation using a desk calculator.
