Fully Reversed Cyclic Loading of Shear Walls Fastened with Engineered Nails
Journal of Structural Engineering, 2009Fifteen shear walls, each constructed with either conventional or engineered sheathing nails, were tested under fully reversed cyclic loads. Four types of conventional nails (named 0.113, 0.113R, 0.131, and 0.148 nails) and three types of engineered nails (named EN1, EN2L, and EN2H nails) were used.

Static and dynamic tests of timber shear walls fastened with nails and wood adhesive
Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1991This paper presents an experimental investigation into the seismic behaviour of timber shear walls fastened with nails alone or with nails in combination with wood adhesive. The responses of both types of shear walls were determined under slow, quasi-static racking loads and also under dynamic, earthquake-induced conditions.

New Nonlinear Roof Sheathing Fastener Model for Use in Finite-Element Wind Load Applications
, 2008Performance-based design is being developed and implemented in seismic and fire resistant design. The field of structural wind engineering has introduced several techniques that may eventually lead to performance-based wind engineering for buildings such

Wood Shear Wall Performance: Influence of Sheathing Nail Head Geometry
, 2009Wood shear wall performance is affected by the materials used for construction including the sheathing fasteners. The model building codes permit different fasteners for sheathing attachment in terms of diameter and length.
