Rocking structural systems have been proposed as a promising solution for designing
resilient building structures. These low-damage systems can prevent significant economic …

The ductile design principle has been widely adopted in seismic design of structures, so the
main structural components are designed to have the dual functions of bearing and energy …

Balloon type cross laminated timber (CLT) rocking shear walls are a novel seismic force
resisting system. In this paper, the seismic performance of four 12-story balloon type CLT …

This paper presents an improved user element (UELm) for cross-laminated timber (CLT)
shear wall connections by modifying model (UELo) developed for light-timber shear walls …

While mass timber structures are gaining more share of the new build structures considering
their well-known advantages, rocking timber walls have been particularly popular with …

Abstract Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) structures are realized by joining CLT panels using
metal connections, which represent the main source of deformability for lateral loads and …

Mass timber buildings have gained global popularity due to the increasing availability and
affordability of mass timber products and an increasing awareness of the sustainability of …

In this study, the interaction relationship and seismic performance efficiency of composite
shear walls were investigated. A previous experiment was reviewed to understand the …

Although the installation of assembled shear wall has been widely used in structure
construction, the splicing zone and structural integrity are still issues of great concern. This …

This paper investigates the effects of transverse shear walls (TSWs), out‐of‐plane bending
stiffness of diaphragms (FDIA), and axial loading (AXL) on the lateral response of strong …
