This paper mainly researched the behavior of double fish plate connector between steel plate shear wall structure and steel frame. Four single fish plate connectors and four double fish plate connectors were tested under monotonic and cyclic loading. The hysteretic curves, skeleton curves, stiffness degradation curve and ductility coefficient were considered to study the behavior of two connections. Results showed that the behavior of double fish plate connector between steel plate shear walls

Double fish plate connectors had higher bearing capacity, slower stiffness degradation, better ductility and better energy dissipation capacity. Constraint effect of steel plate shear walls became stronger, and the out-of-plane buckling failure of steel plate shear walls was delayed. Therefore, the double fish plate connectors could improve the behavior of connection between steel plate shear walls and steel frame, and provide a reference for engineering application
