In this study, the static shear experiments were conducted to understand the mechanical behavior of the Shin-Kabe panel shear walls. Then, by applying the 4-Point Concentrated Method (reference 5), we proposed the mechanical model of the Shin-Kabe panel shear walls. The basic concept of the mechanical model is the same as the structural performance evaluation used in references 1) to 3), and we proposed the new concentrated method for the spring that expresses the nail effects. As a result, the new concentrated method was able to reproduce the experimental values well.
