Cyclic tests of an innovative seismic bracing member - multiple U-shaped flexural plates dissipater
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
Following Canterbury earthquake sequence, there has been an increasing interest in development of low-damage structural design using supplemental damping such as the use of metallic dissipaters. In this research, an ...
Self-drilling dowel connections for ductile link beams in coupled CLT walls
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
Coupled CLT walls with steel link beams can form a more efficient lateral load resisting system for tall timber buildings when compared to single CLT shear walls. To achieve adequate coupling between CLT walls and ensure ...
Investigating CLT Lateral Load Resisting Systems for Taller Timber Buildings
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
Recent taller timber buildings worldwide have often utilized hybrid systems of mixed materials and have been built in regions of low seismicity. Designers often adopt the hybrid material solution of utilizing mass timber ...
