  1. 1. Numerical and experimental study of light-frame shear walls

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Rajan Maharjan; Mohamad El Rachid; [2019]
    Keywords : wood; shear wall; FEM analysis; ABAQUS; experiment; stiffness; racking deformation;

    Abstract : In recent time, some of the construction processes of multi-storey timber buildings are achieved by using prefabricated volume modules since this method is very beneficial due to its high prefabrication level and the fast on-site assembly of the modules. The main structural component of these modules is a light-frame shear wall that stabilizes these modules from the effect of horizontal forces. READ MORE

  2. 2. Modeling of nailed timber connection : Displacement path dependency in sheathing-to-framing connections

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Winston Mmari; [2017]
    Keywords : Displacement path; Sheathing-to-framing; Beam-on-foundation; Embedment properties; Connector Elements;

    Abstract : Connections in wood have been investigated and advanced ever since the ground-breaking work of Johansen in the early nineteenth century. Nevertheless, not much investigation has been undertaken on the existence of load-displacement path dependency in a sheathing-to-framing connection. READ MORE

  3. 3. Evaluation of analytical and finite element models for design of partially anchored wood-framed shear walls.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Anders Lagerås; [2002]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The structural behaviour of a shear wall mainly depends on the configuration of the sheathing to framing joints, and the connections to the surrounding structure, of which the anchoring to the substrate is of major importance. However, most of the today used sh ear wall design methods are linear elastic models limited to the design of walls fully anchored at wall ends and openings. READ MORE
