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...

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...
The Murderers Creek Area, within the Aldrich Mountain province of
northeast Oregon, originated in an arc-trench gap during Permian-early
Triassic time. The area represents a small portion of a forearc
depositional basin and tectonic highland which borders the basin along
its seaward margin. The trench associated with an east dipping...
