Analysis of fully anchored light-frame timber shear walls—elastic model

Materials and Structures, 2009
In order to stabilize light-framed timber buildings against lateral loads, the diaphragm action of roofs, floors and walls is often used. This paper deals with an elastic analysis model for fully anchored sheathed wood frame shear walls. The model is based on the assumption of a linear elastic load-slip relation for the sheathing-to-framing joints ...

Reliability of Light-Frame Wall Systems Subject to Combined Axial and Transverse Loads

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2005
Wood frame walls are essential subassemblies used to transmit roof, floor, wind, and seismic loads into lower stories and eventually into the foundation of light-frame structures. There has been some discussion and debate in recent years over appropriate system factors for use in the design of repetitive wall members, which typically are much smaller ...

Retrofit Options for Light-Frame Wood Stud Walls Subjected to Blast Loading

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2014
AbstractThis paper presents the results of an experimental program, where a total of eight retrofitted walls were subjected to blast loading, simulated by shock waves using the University of Ottawa’s shock tube. Four different external retrofit options were considered and their behavior in terms of failure mode, stiffness, and strength were documented.

Multicriteria decision analysis applied to the design of light-frame wood wall assemblies

Journal of Building Performance Simulation, 2010
Designers of light-frame wood wall assemblies should consider several performance criteria simultaneously in addition to minimum requirements set by building codes. Evaluation of various performance characteristics can help select the most suitable configuration for a given project in a given context.

Behaviour of Light-frame Wood Stud Walls Subjected to Blast Loading

2013
Deliberate and accidental explosions along with the heightened risk of loss of life and property damage during such events have highlighted the need for research in the behaviour of materials under high strain rates. Where an extensive body of research is available on steel and concrete structures, little to no details on how to address the design or ...
