Direct Shear Interface Friction and Linear Motion Shaking Response of Ecoroofs

Creator:: Kilroy, Kimberly A.
Abstract:: Ecoroofs have become more prominent in recent years. However, there is currently no enforceable standard or building code for the design and construction of ecoroofs across the United States (Kraupa, 2014). Further research is needed to determine how ecoroofs respond to roof motion and to develop an appropriate design standard.The...

Static and cyclic response of ecoroof soil

Creator:: Kraupa, Travis J.
Abstract:: Green technology in the United States has been on the rise over the past few decades in the United States. However, certain green technologies have been developed in the absence of design standards. Ecoroofs, which are vegetated soil masses placed on the top of a building’s roof structure, present several...

The Design of a Roof Truss for the Proposed Drill Shed at the Oregon Agricultural College

Creator:: Thompson, Ralph Infield
Abstract:: By an appropriation of the Oregon Legislature of it becomes possible for the Oregon Agricultural College to build a drill shed, a thing long needed by this institution. Dennis, Hendricks and Tobey, architects of Portland, submitted plans for this drill shed and in designing the truss for this building we...

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...

Discrete compression web bracing design for light-frame wood trusses

Creator:: Waltz, Miles E.
Abstract:: As part of a roof framing system, light-frame wood trusses often require lateral bracing to reduce the effective length for flexural buckling of compression web members. This observational research investigates the design requirements for discrete compression web bracing intended to provide such lateral support. Four simple brace analysis methods based...

Segmental rafters for gothic-roofed farm buildings

Creator:: Doyle, D. V. and Forest Products Laboratory (U.S.)
Resource Type:: Technical Report

Examination of lateral stiffness and strength of pitched residential roof diaphragms with implications for seismic design.

Creator:: Kirkham, William J.
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 SFD in...

Experimental and analytical investigation of ponding load effects on a steel joist roof system

Creator:: Stark, Duncan
Abstract:: Ponding of water on roof systems leading to collapse causes expensive damage and jeopardizes the life safety of building occupants. Current building codes and design specifications for flat roof systems offer minimal guidance in designing for ponding loads. The present research investigated ponding load effects on a long span, lightweight...

How to build your own raised-bed cloche

Creator:: Angima, S. D., Biernacki, B., and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: “Cloche” (pronounced klōsh) is French for a bell jar or dish that is set over delicate plants to protect them from cold weather. The definition has expanded to include many types of portable and permanent structures that shelter plants from wind and cold, serving as mini-green houses. They have become...
