With the introduction of Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) into North America and gaining popularity it is of interest to the design and code development community to have codified provisions to facilitate the design of CLT structures. This paper addresses the design aspect of CLT panels subjected to combined bending and compressive axial loads. Fifteen specimens covering different combinations of grades and layups of commercially available Canadian CLT panels were tested at different eccentricities to validate the proposed interaction equation. Testing program was reported in this paper and the test data was compared with the model prediction. It was concluded that the current nonlinear interaction equation given in the Canadian timber design standard (CSA O86) for timber and glulam tends to overestimate the capacity of CLT wall panel. A linear interaction equation was found to be appropriate
