Abstract: |
The seismic performance of sheathing-timber-frame-connections was investigated for different combination of materials and fasteners. The experimental studies were extended to tests on full- scale wall elements in order to verify the transferability of small-scale results to full scale elements. The results were evaluated with regard to stiffness, strength, ductility and overstrength. |
