Creator:: Sinha, Arijit, Gupta, Rakesh, and Nairn, John A.
Abstract:: Wood and wood-based composites are being used extensively in single-family residential dwellings. Therefore, it is important to categorize their response when exposed to elevated temperatures for a sustained period of time. In fire-resistant design for wood structures, the main goal is to ensure that enough structural integrity is maintained, during...

Creator:: Sinha, Arijit, Gupta, Rakesh, and Nairn, John A.
Abstract:: This study investigated the effect of exposure to elevated temperature on the yield strength of single-shear nail connections when subjected to lateral loading. Solid sawn lumber and laminated veneer lumber were used as framing members and two different thicknesses of both oriented strand board and plywood were used as the...

Creator:: Sinha, Arijit, Nairn, John A., and Gupta, Rakesh
Abstract:: The construction industry has relied heavily on wood and wood-based composites, such as oriented strand board (OSB) and plywood for timber frame construction. Therefore, it is highly imperative to categorize the response of wood-based composites when exposed to elevated temperatures for a sustained period of time. The essence of fire-resistant...

Creator:: Seaders, Peter, Miller, Thomas H., and Gupta, Rakesh
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the performance of wood-frame shear walls under monotonic, cyclic, and earthquake loads by: 1) comparing performance under each loading protocol; 2) evaluating effects of anchorage; and 3) eval-uating performance qualitatively and quantitatively with respect to code-deﬁned performance measures. Tests were conducted on...
