N2 - This paper presents results from an investigation of the behavior of unstiffened thin SPSW having a regular pattern of openings (a.k.a. perforated SPSW). Finite element monotonic pushover analyses were conducted, first on a series of individual perforated strips with variation in perforation diameter, to develop a fundamental understanding of the behavior of complete perforated SPSW, then on a corresponding series of complete perforated SPSW having various perforation diameters and three different set of wall boundary conditions. Though some differences between the SPSW panel strips and the individual strip results are observed at large monitored strain, at lower monitored strain however the two models are in a good agreement. Based on the analytical results design recommendations of these perforated SPSWs are presented.
