Design Considerations for Buckling Restrained Braces in Timber Frames Subject to Out of Plane Deformations
Dorrance, William; Huang, Matthew; MacRae, Gregory; Bashiri, Mehdi; Li, Minghao (2023-04-19)The introduction of using steel buckling restrained braces (BRBs) has proven to greatly improve the in-plane seismic performance of timber structures. However, little is understood about the performance of BRBs subject to ... -
Design of Mixed Angle Screw CLT Hold-Down Connections to New Zealand Timber Standards
Wright, Thomas; Li, Minghao; Moroder, Daniel; Carradine, David (2023-04-19)Mixed angle screws provide a strong, stiff, and ductile hold-down solution for high-capacity Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) shear walls. Timber is an inherently brittle material and most inelastic responses in timber structures ... -
Ductility factor validation for CLT walls with bolted hold-downs: preliminary analysis and observations
Moerman, Ben; Li, Minghao; Liu, Angela; Smith, Tobias; Palermo, Alessandro (2022-04-27)High-capacity cantilever CLT walls can be created with bolted hold-downs to resist earthquake loading. This study briefly presents the experimental results and cyclic behaviour of the representative test specimen. Then ... -
Repair and Reinstatement of Douglas-fir CLT Hold-down Connections using Mixed Angle Self Tapping Screws
Wright, Thomas; Li, Minghao; Lim, Thomas; Moroder, Daniel; Carradine, David; Gedyma, Mikhail (2022-04-27)The system ductility of timber structures under seismic loads relies on well detailed connection systems. With the increasing popularity of mass timber structures, CLT shear walls provide an efficient seismic load resisting ... -
Review and suggestions on timber buildings with hybrid lateral force resisting systems
Gedyma, Mikhail; Lee, Chin-Long; MacRae, Gregory; Lim, Hyungsuk (Thomas); Liu, Angela; Li, Minghao (2023-04-19)Timber-framed structures have long been the default structural form for residential construction in many countries, including New Zealand. However, for some complex low-rise and mid-rise buildings, hybrid Lateral Force ... -
Simple Three-layer Pagoda Analysis
Liang, Haoyu; Chen, Jian; MacRae, Gregory; Jia, Liang-Jiu; Li, Minghao (2024-04-09)This paper describes the construction of a simplified three-storey pagoda and its behaviour. The following are developed: (i) a 1/20 scale 3-D printed overall structure model, (ii) a 1/10 scale 3-D printed model of one ...
