Balloon-type CLT Shearwalls: Lateral Deformation and Kinematic Behaviours
Balloon-type Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) shearwall systems have been increasingly adopted as lateral load-resisting systems in mid-rise timber buildings. Compared with platform-type configurations, balloon-type shearwalls mitigate bearing failure associated with perpendicular-to-grain compression …

Investigating the Performance of Wood Portal Frames as Alternative Bracing Systems in Light-Frame Wood Buildings
Light-frame shearwall assemblies have been successfully used to resist gravity and lateral loads, such as earthquake and wind, for many decades. However, there is a need for maintaining the structural integrity of such buildings even when large openings in walls are introduced. Wood portal frame …

Effect of Overturning Restraint on the Performance of Fully Sheathed and Perforated Timber Framed Shear Walls
This study investigates the monotonic and cyclic response of light-frame wood shear walls with and without openings. Effects of overturning restraint in the form of tie-down anchors and corner segments on light-frame shear walls with and without door and window openings were quantified. While the …
