Title: Design and analysis of buildings made exclusively of concrete shear walls
Type: Undergraduate thesis
Submitted to: National Technical University of Athens
Date: July 1999
Language: Greek

This was my dissertation at N.T.U.A. It was completed in July 1999 under the supervision of Vlasis Koumousis, Assistant Professor (at the time). 

In this thesis, I examine the static and dynamic behavior of buildings made exclusively of concrete shear walls. There is an extended reference to construction systems for these buildings, and ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms) systems in particular. I also wrote a computer program which allowed the fast design of such buildings within a graphical user interface (GUI), with many useful functions such as delete/move/copy element, switch between wall profile/plan view design, copying of the data between levels, etc. The program also created the input file for well-established analysis tools such as Sophistik, which allowed me to further analyse the buildings and draw some useful conclusions.
