This work discusses the structural analysis of a novel modular timber frame coupled with an OSB panel and a tecnoprene plaster-infilled slab, which confer in-plane shear resistance to the frame and allow the realization of efficient and dissipative shear walls. The expected seismic behaviour of the system was confirmed by experimental tests. Quasi-static cyclic-loading tests were conduced according to EN 12512 protocol to define the main mechanical properties of the system. Finally, a numerical model was calibrated on the basis of test results, in order to characterize the dynamic non-linear behaviour of a case-study building and to estimate the suitable behaviour factor value for this system.

Abstract
This work discusses the structural analysis of a novel modular timber frame coupled with an OSB panel and a tecnoprene plaster-infilled slab, which confer in-plane shear resistance to the frame and allow the realization of efficient and dissipative shear walls. The expected seismic behaviour of the system was confirmed by experimental tests. Quasi-static cyclic-loading tests were conduced according to EN 12512 protocol to define the main mechanical properties of the system. Finally, a numerical model was calibrated on the basis of test results, in order to characterize the dynamic non-linear behaviour of a case-study building and to estimate the suitable behaviour factor value for this system.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
