Plastic models for analysis of fully anchored light-frame timber shear walls
Engineering Structures, 2009In order to stabilise timber-framed buildings against lateral loads, the diaphragm action of roofs, floors and walls is often used. This paper deals with plastic analysis models for fully anchored sheathed shear walls. The models are based on the assumption of plastic load-slip relations for the sheathing-to-framing joints.

BIM-based Automated Design Checking for Building Permit in the Light-Frame Building Industry
Proceedings of the 36th International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (ISARC), 2019Automation of the code compliance checking has been explored extensively, particularly in recent years with the emergence of building information modelling (BIM).

Structural behaviour of light-frame timber shear-walls with diagonal board sheathing
Construction and Building MaterialsAs an alternative to wooden panels, diagonal boards sheathings can be used to provide adequate lateral stability of light-frame timber (LFT) shear-walls. Much more common in the past than the present, LFT shear-walls with diagonal boards (LFT-DB) have undergone a significant revival of use and interest, especially in Europe, due to an increasing ...

Multicriteria decision analysis applied to the design of light-frame wood wall assemblies
Journal of Building Performance Simulation, 2010Designers 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.

Dynamically loaded light-frame wood stud walls: experimental verification of an analytical model
Materials and Structures, 2009Light-frame wood structures may deform well beyond the elastic limit when loaded by dynamic forces such as earthquakes and sea wave impacts. This paper reports the results of an investigation into the response effects of structural modeling assumptions typically made in the design of light-frame wood structures.

Behaviour of Light-frame Wood Stud Walls Subjected to Blast Loading
2013Deliberate 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 ...

Revisiting the Component Additive Method for light-frame walls protected by gypsum board
Fire and Materials, 1997The National Building Code of Canada provides architects, engineers and builders with a simple, practical calculation method for assigning fire-resistance ratings to wood-frame and steel-frame wall, floor and roof-ceiling assemblies. It was originally devised in the early 1960s and is commonly known as the Component Additive Method (CAM).
