A procedure for rapid visual screening for seismic safety of wood-frame dwellings with plan irregularity

Creator:: Lucksiri, Kraisorn, Miller, Thomas H., Gupta, Rakesh, Pei, Shiling, and van de Lindt, John W.
Abstract:: This paper highlights the development of a rapid visual screening (RVS) tool to quickly identify, inventory, and rank residential buildings that are potentially seismically hazardous, focusing on single-family, wood-frame dwellings with plan irregularity. The SAPWood software was used to perform a series of nonlinear time-history analyses for 480 representative models,...

Damage Assessment of a Full-Scale Six-Story Wood-Frame Building Following Triaxial Shake Table Tests

Creator:: van de Lindt, John W., Gupta, Rakesh, Pei, Shiling, Tachibana, Kazuki, Araki, Yasuhiro, Rammer, Douglas, and Isoda, Hiroshi
Abstract:: In the summer of 2009, a full-scale midrise wood-frame building was tested under a series of simulated earthquakes on the world’s largest shake table in Miki City, Japan. The objective of this series of tests was to validate a performance-based seismic design approach by qualitatively and quantitatively examining the building’s...

Behavior of cross-laminated timber diaphragm connections with self-tapping screws

Creator:: Sullivan, Kyle, Miller, Thomas H., and Gupta, Rakesh
Abstract:: Monotonic and cyclic tests were carried out to determine strength and stiffness characteristics of 2.44 m (8 ft) long shear connections with 8 mm and 10 mm diameter self-tapping screws. The goal of this research is to compare test values of cross-laminated timber (CLT) diaphragm connections in seismic force-resisting systems...

Evaluation of Remediation Techniques for Circular Holes in the Webs of Wood I-Joists

Creator:: Polocoser, Tiberiu, Miller, Thomas H., and Gupta, Rakesh
Abstract:: Remediation methods and strength predictions were evaluated for wood I-joists with single, circular holes in the webs, leaving utilities in place. A full-scale bending test using four equally spaced point loads was applied to three depths of joists with varying flange widths and span lengths of 4.88 and 2.44 m....

Practical Analysis for Horizontal Diaphragm Design of Wood-Frame Single-Family Dwellings

Creator:: Kirkham, William J., Miller, Thomas H., and Gupta, Rakesh
Abstract:: Seismic design of wood-frame single-family dwellings’ (WFSFD) lateral force–resisting systems requires determination of the stiffness of horizontal diaphragms and shearwalls. During design, sizes and locations of shearwall openings are often changed, altering shearwall stiffness and loads and requiring a significant redesign effort. Rigid and tributary area method analyses are examined...

Evaluation of Tsunami Loads on Wood-Frame Walls at Full Scale

Creator:: Linton, David, Gupta, Rakesh, Cox, Dan, van de Lindt, John, Oshnack, Mary Elizabeth, and Clauson, Milo
Abstract:: The performance of full-scale light-frame wood walls subjected to wave loading was examined using the Large Wave Flume of the Network for Earthquake Engineering (NEES) Tsunami Facility at Oregon State University. The hydrodynamic conditions (water level and bore speed) and structural response (horizontal force, pressure, and deflection) were observed for...

Practical Modeling for Wind Load Paths in a Realistic Light-Frame Wood House

Creator:: Pfretzschner, Kathryn S., Gupta, Rakesh, and Miller, Thomas H.
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to develop and validate practical modeling methods for investigating load paths and system behavior in a realistic light-frame wood structure. The modeling methods were validated against full-scale tests on subassemblies and an L-shaped house. The model of the L-shaped house was then modified and...
