The use of brick veneer with wood-stud frame construction is common in residential houses in the US. This paper presents an analysis of the seismic performance of brick veneer in wood-stud walls.

Nonlinear time history analyses have been conducted with models representing different wall configurations and having different anchor types and spacings.
