Light-frame versus timber frame : a study in quantifying the differences

Creator:: Malone, Brian P.
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to compare light wood framing and traditional timber framing quantitatively through environmental impact assessment and load path analysis. This research was inspired by a traditional timber frame structure constructed in Vermont in 2011, and the design of structures considered within reflect the general characteristics...

Load sharing and system factors for light-frame wall systems

Creator:: Yu, Guangren
Abstract:: A considerable amount of research has focused on load-sharing and system effects in repetitive-member wood floor systems subject to transverse loading. However, relatively few studies have been conducted to investigate load-sharing and system effects in repetitive-member wall systems which may be subject to combined transverse and gravity (vertical) loading, and...

Performance-based seismic design of light-frame shearwalls

Creator:: Kim, Jun Hee
Abstract:: Performance-based design has gained interest in recent years among structural designers and researchers. Performance-based design includes selection of appropriate building sites, structural systems and configurations, as well as analytical procedures used in the design process, to confirm that the structure has adequate strength, stiffness and energy dissipation capacity to respond...

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...

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...

Sustainable construction safety and health rating system

Creator:: Rajendran, Sathyanarayanan
Abstract:: The main objective of this research study is to incorporate construction worker safety and health into sustainable design and construction practices. This can be fulfilled by the development of an innovative construction worker safety and health planning tool, called Sustainable Construction Safety and Health (SCSH) Rating System that will: •...

Site-specific load models and hazards for probability-based design

Creator:: Lee, Kyung Ho
Abstract:: Structural design codes have evolved continuously since modern codes were established. The allowable stress design format has been widely used since the late 191h century. During the past two decades, probability-based limit states design concepts have evolved and are increasingly being used for various material and structural types. Limit state...
