Abstract: Pushover analysis is one of the most-used nonlinear static procedures for the seismic assessment of structures; therefore, nowadays it is extensively used by practicing engineers for the seismic analysis of virtually every ...

Abstract: In the seismic design of light-frame timber buildings (LFTBs), the use of strong shear walls (SSWs) is crucial for providing lateral resistance. While the contribution of finish layers, such as Type X gypsum wallboard ...
