Lateral performance of traditional Chinese timber frames: Experiments and analytical model

Engineering Structures, 2019
Abstract This article presents test results of the lateral behavior of traditional Chinese timber frames (TCTF). Three 1/3.52-scaled single-span TCTF specimens, with different column heights and vertical loads application, were subjected to low-cyclic reversed loading tests.
