Racking Resistance and Ductility of CLT Shear Walls Under Horizontal and Vertical Loads
http://schd.ws/hosted_files/wcte2014/5e/ABS678_Yas... [Mechanical Performance] [Conference Paper] 2014 Motoi Yasumura, Yoshimasa Ito This paper shows the racking test results of CLT shear walls with different failure modes. The failure modes of shear walls were designed by using reliability analysis considering the failure of the hold down connections at the bottom end of shear wall and that of the joints connecting two CLT panels at the centre of the wall. It was shown that the design of joints with the yield capacity Py for the central joints SP and the ultimate capacity Pu for the hold down connection HD (Mode III) determi... |

Estimation of Bending Stiffness, Moment Carrying Capacity and Internal Shear Force of Sugi CLT Panel
http://schd.ws/hosted_files/wcte2014/d0/ABS307_Oka... [Mechanical Performance] [Conference Paper] 2014 Minoru Okabe, Motoi Yasumura, Kenji Kobayashi CLT panels consist of several layers of lumber stacked crosswise and glued together on their faces. Prototype Sugi CLT floor panels were manufactured and bending and internal shear tests were carried out under the different parameters of lumber MOE, number of layers, thickness of lumber and thickness of CLT panels. On the basis of above tests, internal shear strength, bending stiffness and moment carrying capacity were estimated based on the lumber properties by Monte Carlo method. Bending stiff... |

Accommodating Shrinkage in Multi-Story Wood-Frame Structures
http://www.woodworks.org/wp-content/uploads/Accomo... [Moisture/Durability] [Report] 2017 Richard Mclain, Doug Steimle In wood-frame buildings of three or more stories, cumulative shrinkage can be significant and have an impact on the function and performance of finishes, openings, mechanical/electrical/plumbing (MEP) systems, and structural connections. However, as more designers look to wood-frame construction to improve the cost and sustainability of their mid-rise projects, many have learned that accommodating wood shrinkage is actually very straightforward. Wood is hygroscopic, meaning it has the ability to... |

Maximizing Value with Mid-Rise Construction
http://www.woodworks.org/wp-content/uploads/Maximi... [General Information] [Report] 2015 Lisa Podesto Growing demand for mid-rise buildings, including apartments and condominiums, senior living, affordable, and mixed-use commercial/residential developments, creates both challenge and opportunity for building professionals as they work to balance value with performance. Wood-frame construction is a cost-effective option for mid-rise structures because it allows high density (five stories for many residential occupancy groups, six for office) at relatively low cost, while providing other benefits ... |

Fire design of arch-type timber roof
http://imateh.rtu.lv/wp-content/uploads/sites/28/2... [Fire Performance] [Magazine/Newspaper Article] 2016 T. Saknite, D. Serdjuks, V. Goremikins, L. Pakrastins, N.I. Vatin Lattice timber structures, which are made of elements connected by punched steel plates, are widely used for residential and industrial buildings. The main types of the structures are trusses, frames, and arches, which enables covering spans up to 30 m and more. The behavior of structures on fire plays an important role in the design process of the structures. The cylindrical roof with a 30 m span and the main load-bearing structures of lattice arches with elements connected by punched metal pla... |
