RC　short　pier　shear　wall　structure　is　a　new　type　of　mid-rise　residential　structure　system　and　it　has　been　applied　in　many　constructions　in　China.　However,　its　seismic　performance　is　inferior,　so　a　lot　of　attention　has　been　paid　to　improve　its　seismic　performance.　In　this　paper,　the　short　pier　shear　wall　with　concealed　bracing　is　proposed.　Based　upon　the　experimental　study　on　the　seismic　performance　of　three　1/2　scale　L-shaped　short　pier　walls　with　concealed　bracings　and　three　1/2　scale　general　shear　wall,　the　effects　of　concealed　bracings　on　the　failure　phenomena,　bearing　capacity,　stiffness　and　its　degradation,　ductility　and　hysteresis　property　of　L-shaped　short　pier　shear　walls　are　discussed,　the　seismic　performance　of　the　L-shaped　with　concealed　bracings　are　also　compared　with　that　of　the　general　L-shaped　short　pier　shear　wall.　Experiment　results　show　that　concealed　bracings　can　greatly　improve　the　seismic　performance　of　L-shaped　short　pier　shear　wall.
