Wood Diaphragm Deflections. I: Generalizing Standard Equations Using Mechanics-Based Derivations for Panel Construction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Horizontal wood diaphragm systems, whether decked with conventional or mass timber panels, transfer wind and seismic loads to vertical elements of a lateral force-resisting system (LFRS), in flexible, rigid, or semirigid ...
Wood Diaphragm Deflections. II: Implementing a Unified Approach for Current CLT and WSP Practice
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Horizontal wood diaphragm systems, whether decked with conventional or mass timber panels, transfer wind and seismic loads to vertical elements of the lateral force-resisting system, in flexible, rigid, or semirigid ways. ...
Analytical and Numerical Models for Wind and Seismic Design and Assessment of Mass Timber Diaphragms
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: While the use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels for building construction has increased over the last several decades, current standards and existing literature provide limited information regarding the design of CLT ...
Shake-Table Experimental Testing and Performance of Topped and Untopped Cross-Laminated Timber Diaphragms
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents the behavior of floor diaphragms of a shake-table experiment of a full-scale 2-story mass-timber building structure. The structure consists of glued-laminated timber beams and columns, and floors and ...
