Abstract
- A simplified and reliable tool for the elastic analysis of one-storey timber shear-walls under simultaneous horizontal and vertical loads is presented. This approach is suitable for the analysis both of light timber-frame walls and CLT walls. The analytical expressions to determine the horizontal displacement and the elastic stiffness of a single wall are provided, these expressions are then extended to walls placed in series. A simplified numerical model suitable for F.E. analysis is also developed. In the last part of the paper a comparison between an analytical example and the results of a laboratory test is shown.
