Full-scale Shaking Table Tests of Traditional Wooden Frame

Year: 2012
Type: article
Abstract: In order to evaluate the dynamic characteristics (natural period, equivalent viscous damping ratio, etc.) of traditional wooden frames, full-scale shaking table tests were performed. In these tests, the following types of specimens were included; 1) frame with hanging wall, 2) frame used non-slipping-out wedge, 3) frame installed Zn-Al dampers.Zn-Al damper and Non-slipping-out wedge were developed by the authors. As a result, horizontal displacement became from 27 to 37% smaller and equivalent viscous damping ratio became from 57 to 162% larger by using Zn-Al damper.Finally, seismic response analyses were conducted. Based on the static loading test, the hysteresis model of the joint part was made for analysis.
