Abstract The study aims to simulate the lateral responses of the conventional cross laminated timber (CLT) shear wall by establishing the equivalent decomposed wall models and providing lateral performance evaluation of walls with varied connections and walls in mass timber structures. First, the connection hysteresis model was built by calibrating the corresponding test results from references. Then, a detailed wall model, assembled with the calibrated connection models and shell elements, was calibrated with the wall experiments available in the literature. Based on the detailed wall model and the referred connection test results, an improved decomposed model with equivalent springs and shell elements was developed. The case studies indicate that both models captured the behavior of different connection configurations; however, the equivalent decomposed model provided a better prediction of the equivalent viscous damping ratio. The equivalent decomposed model was then applied in a full-scale three-story building time-history seismic analysis. The building simulation results indicate that the developed models can accurately estimate the wall hysteresis behavior, which can be a reference for CLT shear wall design. |
