Effect of Thermal Bridge in Light-Frame Wood Wall

BioResources, 2022
The presence of thermal bridges in a wall increases local heat conduction of the building envelope, resulting in a decrease in the wall’s average thermal resistance. Simultaneously, the internal surface temperature of thermal bridge is lower than that of

LIGHT-FRAME TIMBER SHEAR-WALLS WITH DIAGONAL BOARD SHEATHING: EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION [PDF]

World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE 2023), 2023
The lateral stability of Light-frame timber (LFT) shear-walls is typically ensured by the nailed connection between the wooden frame elements and the sheathing wooden panels, e.g. Oriented Strain Boards (OSB), whereas hold-downs and angle brackets are typically adopted to limit the rigid body rotation and sliding of shear-walls.

Study on Moisture Variation in Light Frame Wall with Different Wall Assemblies (II) － Moister Transfer of Light Frame Wall in Field Test －

Journal of the Korean Wood Science and Technology, 2010
The purpose of this study was finding out proper wall assembly to reduce moisture accumulation in light frame wall under outdoor air conditions. For the purpose, moisture transfer and accumulation in a wall were evaluated for five types of wall assembly; typical wall (T), addition of a vapor retarder (P1), addition of two vapor retarders (P2), addition

Trombe Wall Thermal Behavior and Energy Efficiency of a Light Steel Frame Compartment: Experimental and Numerical Assessments

Energies, 2020
Buildings are seeking renewable energy sources (e.g., solar) and passive devices, such as Trombe walls. However, the thermal performance of Trombe walls depends on many factors. In this work, the thermal behavior and energy efficiency of a Trombe wall in

Study on half-scale model test for light-frame shear wall [PDF]

Journal of Wood Science, 2002
A half-scale model of a light-frame shear wall was developed to evaluate the racking performance of a fullscale shear wall (prototype). The effect of nail size on the performance of the shear wall was also investigated using models constructed with three types of nail. Materials for the model were determined through experimental methods, which included

Shear Resistance for Lateral Force of Light-frame Wall Sheathed with Structural Particleboard (PB)

BioResources
The shear resistance of a structural particleboard (PB) wall was evaluated as a means to utilize recycled wood and low-grade logs for long periods. The wall was composed of spruce-pine-fir (SPF) lumber, nails, and structural PB, which was developed by ...
