It is assumed that concrete compressive stress of the cross-section compression zone is linear distribution when the cross-section of high-strength concrete shear wall reaches yield situation. Based on the plane section assumption, the yield curvature formula of shear wall section is obtained by using moment - curvature analysis method. The parameters affecting yield curvature of high-strength concrete shear wall are studied by using the yield curvature formula. The results show that longitudinal reinforcement yield strain is the most vital factor of the yield curvature in addition to axial load ratio. When axial load ratio is larger, both wing walls of shear wall section have larger impact. The yield curvature formula is presented, considering the impact of axial load ratio, boundary reinforcement yield stress and both ends of wing walls of shear wall section based on the regression analysis of calculation results. On this basis, the vertex yield displacement formula of high-strength concrete shear wall is proposed, and the calculation results of formula correspond well to the vertex yield displacement experimental values of the 12 high-strength concrete cantilever wall. The formula is also suited for the vertex yield displacement of comment concrete shear wall.
