EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON BRACING EFFECTS ON SIP SHEAR WALLS
2010
The purpose of this study is to examine the bracing effects of SIP shear walls. There are a lot of studies on racking strength of light-frame nailed shear walls in Japan. However, there seems to be no established theories in bracing effects of SIP shear walls. Therefore we conducted static loading tests of two types specimen. The following main results obtained: 1) Bracing effects showed 20% to 30% increase in shear strength. 2) We conducted the formulation of bracing effects of SIP shear walls, and we got definite result.
