     nonlinear static pushover analysis is used to assess seismic behaviour of structures reasonably well. commercial structural analysis softwares currently available to perform pushover analysis (poa) require definition of inelastic regions as idealised bilinear load-deformation response curves. reinforced concrete (rc) structural walls in mid-rise buildings form the lateral load resisting system (llrs). thus, proper idealized moment-curvature response curves of these relatively slender rc walls form the key input for pushover analyses of such buildings. the idealized moment-curvature response curve must represent the cracked rigidity, flexural strength, and curvature ductility of the wall. estimation of flexural strength and curvature ductility depends on significant strain levels in concrete and reinforcement bars at the onset of critical damage states. yielding of extreme layer of tension reinforcement and compression failure in concrete are two such critical damage states of rc sections. a methodology to arrive at idealised momentcurvature curve of rc wall sections that can be used as an input to perform pushover analysis is proposed in the study. idealized moment-curvature curve, of deep rc wall sections with distributed longitudinal steel along its length, needs to consider yielding of an inner layer of longitudinal reinforcement as against yielding of the (extreme layer of) tension reinforcement in shallow beam sections, the paper presents a methodology for deep rc rectangular wall sections with distributed steel to first identify this critical inner layer of reinforcement below the centroidal axis (on tension side) based on energy balance of idealised momentcurvature curve with actual nonlinear curve, and then, to develop idealized moment-curvature response curve damage state. further, the distance of the critical inner layer of tension reinforcement from highly compressed edge depends on percentage of longitudinal reinforcement bars in the section; the distance varies from 0.5d to 0.98d with increase in percentage of longitudinal reinforcement, where d is the length of the wall, but does not depend on plan aspect ratio of walls.
