Abstract
With global urbanization trends, the demands for tall residential and mixed-use buildings in the range of 8~20 stories are increasing. One new structural system in this height range are tall wood buildings which have been built in select locations around the world...
In order to consider the seismic design method, the shaking table tests and static lateral load tests were conducted to the modelized CLT panel construction. As a result, it was clarified that the shear displacement and joint deformation under the seismi...
Soft-story wood-frame buildings have been recognized as a disaster preparedness problem for decades. There are tens of thousands of these multi-family three- and four-story structures throughout California and other cities in the United States. The major...
The following paper describes the numerical modelling used to predict the dynamic behaviour of a posttensioned timber building with the addition of a hysteretic energy dissipation system. This modelling is in support of a shaking table test programme per...
