State of the Art: Seismic Behavior of Wood-Frame Residential Structures

Creator:: Kirkham, William J., Gupta, Rakesh, and Miller, Thomas H.
Abstract:: There are about 80 million single-family dwellings (SFD) in the United States, predominantly of wood-frame construction. Of these, 68% are owner occupied. A home is typically the largest single investment of a family, and is often not covered by earthquake insurance, even where it is available. Of all the houses...

Case Study for Tsunami Design of Coastal Infrastructure: Spencer Creek Bridge, Oregon

Creator:: Yim, Solomon C., Wei, Yong, Azadbakht, Mohsen, Nimmala, Seshu, and Potisuk, Tanarat
Abstract:: The absence of tsunami load provisions in coastal infrastructure design has led to unchecked resistance capacity of bridges against one of the most eminent natural hazards on the U.S. west coast. The Spencer Creek Bridge, which was completely rebuilt on the Oregon coast in 2009, is a unique example to...

Laboratory Observations of Tsunami-Driven Debris Damming with Comparison to ASCE 7-22 Minimum Design Loads

Creator:: Doyle, Kellen C.
Abstract:: Tsunami inundation of coastal communities can impose a wide array of forces on the built environment. Forces generated by tsunami-driven debris damming have the potential to cause failure of coastal structures and further accumulate flow-entrained debris. Since tsunami-resilient design standards were adopted by ASCE in 2016, debris damming considerations have...

A Dynamic Framework for Intelligent Control of River Flooding - A Case Study

Creator:: Leon, Arturo S., Kanashiro, Elizabeth A., Valverde, Rachelle, and Sridhar, Venkataramana
Abstract:: This paper presents a case study on the application of a dynamic framework for the intelligent control of flooding in the Boise River system in Idaho. This framework couples a robust and numerically efficient hydraulic routing approach with the popular multi-objective Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II). The novelty of...

Multilinear Regression Equations for Predicting Lateral Spread Displacement from Soil Type and CPT Data

Creator:: Gillins, Daniel T. and Bartlett, Steven F.
Abstract:: In the 1990s, Bartlett and Youd introduced empirical equations for predicting horizontal displacement from liquefaction-induced lateral spreading; these equations have become popular in engineering practice. The equations were developed by multilinear regression (MLR) of lateral spreading case history data compiled by these researchers. In 2002, these equations were revised and...

Bearing Strength Capacity of Continuous Supported Timber Beams: Unified Approach for Test Methods and Structural Design Codes

Creator:: Leijten, A. J. M., Franke, S., Quenneville, P., and Gupta, R.
Abstract:: Bearing or compressive strength capacity perpendicular to the grain of timber beams is a troublesome issue. Not only do many different load cases occur in practice that are not covered by structural timber design codes but also these codes provide only a basic provision and vary throughout continents. Code design...

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...

Modeling System Effects and Structural Load Paths in a Wood-Framed Structure

Creator:: Martin, Kenneth G., Gupta, Rakesh, Prevatt, David O., Datin, Peter L., and van de Lindt, John W.
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to evaluate system effects and further define load paths within a light-frame wood structure under extreme wind events. The three-dimensional 30- by 40-ft (9.1- by 12.2-m) building, designed to be representative of typical light-frame wood construction in the southeastern coastal region of the United...

Monotonic and Cyclic Testing of Cross-Laminated Timber Diaphragms

Creator:: Beairsto, Cody J.
Abstract:: Mass timber is emerging as a viable form of construction around the world in new markets for wood buildings. The entrance into these markets has driven the demand for more knowledge to enable designs alongside other structural materials such as steel and reinforced concrete. Large, in-plane tests on cross-laminated timber...

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 sub-assemblies and an L-shaped house. The model of the L-shaped house was then modified and...
