Cyclic Analysis of Wood Shear Walls

Abstract

A simple numerical model to predict the load-displacement response and energy dissipation characteristics of wood shear walls under general quasi-static cyclic loading is presented. In this model the shear wall is composed of three structural components: rigid framing members, linear elastic sheathing panels, and nonlinear sheathing-to-framing connectors. The hysteretic model for the sheathing-to-framing connector takes account of pinching …
