Behavior of a 1/6th scale, two-story, wood framed residential structure under surge wave loading

Creator:: Wilson, Jebediah
Abstract:: The goal of this study was to develop an understanding of the nature of surge wave loading on wood framed residential structures for a variety of building configurations and test conditions. The objectives of the study were: (1) to measure forces on a 1/6th scale wood framed residential structure, (2)...

Evaluation of system effects and structural load paths in a wood-framed structure

Creator:: Martin, Kenneth G.
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to develop an analytical model of a light-framed wood structure using a prevalent structural analysis computer program in order to evaluate system effects and define load paths within the structure, especially under extreme wind events. Simplified modeling techniques and material definitions were developed and...

Optimizing the performance of gypsum wall board in wood frame shear walls

Creator:: Goodall, Scott I.
Abstract:: The overall goal of this project was to design a wood frame shear wall that could withstand greater displacement before damage occurred to the Gypsum Wall Board (GWB). More specifically, the objectives of the study were: (1) to evaluate damage to the GWB in alternative shear wall designs at 1%,...

Strain distribution in OSB and GWB in wood frame shear walls

Creator:: Sinha, Arijit
Abstract:: The overall goal of this study was to gain an insight into the load sharing aspect between oriented strand board (OSB) and gypsum wall board (GWB) in shear wall assembly during racking load. More specifically the objectives of the study were to: (1) evaluate qualitatively the load sharing between OSB...

Evaluation of the torsion test as a method to determine the shear strength of structural composite lumber

Creator:: Siller, Tobias Stefan
Abstract:: Torsion test was evaluated as a method to determine the shear strength parallel to grain of full-size structural composite lumber (SCL). Experimental results of eighty-five rectangular (44 x 140 mm²) specimens were verified by finite element analysis. Laminated strand lumber (LSL), laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and parallel strand lumber (PSL)...

System behavior of three-dimensional wood truss assemblies

Creator:: Limkatanyoo, Pranueng
Abstract:: The objective of this research is to use a three-dimensional (3D) analysis method to include 'system effects' directly in the design of light-frame roof truss assemblies. The goal of this study is to develop an improved and practical method to determine the structural performance of 3D roof truss assemblies used...

Characterizing perpendicular-to-grain compression in wood construction applications

Creator:: Basta, Craig Thomas
Abstract:: Current compression perpendicular-to-grain (c-perp) design values for wood members are based on mean stress using the ASTM D143 specimen. Base design value, as determined from 0.04-in deformation in the ASTM specimen, is applied to all c-perp applications. While the standard ASTM test was presumably believed to adequately reflect relevant c-perp...

Load Path Investigation in a Light-Frame Wood House with Complex Geometry

Creator:: Holman, Justin D.
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to investigate load paths in an existing light-frame wood structure with complex geometry, using previously established computer modeling methods. The structural model is derived from an existing, multi-level residence located in Corvallis, Oregon. For the purpose of this study, the existing structure was simplified...

Evaluation of remediation techniques for circular holes in the webs of wood I-joists

Creator:: Polocoser, Tiberiu
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to evaluate methods to remediate a wood I-joist with a single, circular hole in the web while leaving utilities in place. The methods were experimentally evaluated with a full-scale bending test using four equally spaced point loads. There were three depths of joists with...

Behavior of Cross-Laminated Timber Diaphragm Panel-to-Panel Connections with Self-Tapping Screws

Creator:: Sullivan, Kyle
Abstract:: The goal of this project is to contribute to the development of design values for cross-laminated timber (CLT) diaphragms in the seismic load-resisting system for buildings. Monotonic and cyclic tests to determine strength and stiffness characteristics of 2.44 m (8 ft) long shear connections with common self-tapping screws were performed....
