In this paper, a macro model and its analytical method are proposed for analizing the maximum strength of multistory framed shear walls. The features of the proposed model are following : the shear resistance and bending moment distribution of columns and the slip shear strength of wall panel are considered. The analytical method is based on the lower bound theorem in the limit analysis. By using this model thirty specimens selected by the JCI committee, which failed in shear failure or in flexural failure mode, were analized. From the analytical results it is shown that the model is more adequate than the others' models in accuracy of analysis and range of application.
