Cyclic Tests on Steel–Wooden Hybird Resisting System


Abstract eng:
This paper presents experimental study on steel–wood hybrid resisting system that can be used in Japanese conventional wooden frameworks to resist lateral forces. As aseismic element, a thin steel plate with slits was adopted and it was fixed inside a wooden frame. The experimental work consists of 4 small–scale steel–wood hybrid specimens and 3 small–scale wooden frames. All specimens were subjected to repeated horizontal load. Four kinds of layout of slits were chosen as experimental parameter. Out of plane strengthening elements were used in these 4 steel–wood hybrid specimens. The test results showed that these steel–wood hybrid specimens behaved in a ductile manner up to 6~10% of storey drift angle without strength degradation, and their wall strength ratios are larger than 5.0. The maximum horizontal loads of these specimens were about twice of their calculated ultimate strengths.
