Experimental Seismic Response of a Full-Scale Light-Frame Wood Building
Abstract
A full-scale, two-story, light-frame wood townhouse building, designed according to modern U.S. engineered seismic design requirements, was tested on two triaxial shake tables operating in unison. The main objective of this experimental study was to determine the dynamic characteristics and the seismic performance of the test building under various base input intensities, representative of both ordinary and near-field ground motions in southern …
