“…In the beam model [1,2,3,4] frame elements of the timber structure are described as applying beam elements, while sheathing boards are represented by an adopted diagonal spring. The frame scheme of the structure is obtained in a result where triangle-creating beam elements are joined in nodes modeled applying non-dimensional spring elements of adequate stiffness.…”

1This paper presents new procedure modeling based on finite element method analysis of wood-framed timber structures. The fasteners linking boards of sheathing with the timber frame both modeled applying shell finite element, with individual material parameters, remain the main objective of this manuscript. Material parameters are obtained from experimental tests and numerical identification. The main objective of the paper is the elaboration of the numerical model with high precision of mapping, and, at the same time, diminishing the number of the unknown simplifying the process of the modeling of timber structures. The new presented method leads to a simplification of analysis of multistory wood-framed multifamily building structures.

“…As a result, the hysteretic behavior of timber frame constructions is governed by the local behavior of sheathing-to-frame connections, angle bracket and hold-down connections, which are responsible for the structure's dissipative capacity. Among these joints, the behavior of the local joint between the timber frame and sheathing panel http is one of the most relevant as confirmed by the expressions of main standards [1][2][3][4], by analytical models [5][6][7] and by numerical Finite Element Modelling of wood-frame walls [8,9].…”

“…In practise, fasteners are most often simulated with springs or with extra layers to which special material characteristics, simulating actual situation, are attributed. The most accurate way of modelling timber-framed walls using the finite element method (FEM) has been used by many researchers; see for example Ayoub [9], He et al [10], Vessby et al [11], Tarabia and Itani [12], Foschi [13] and Falk and Itani [14]. The FEM modelling of timber-framed walls was also presented in Kozem Šilih et al [15], where timber frame was simulated with line elements, sheathing boards with shell elements and staples with spring elements.…”

a b s t r a c tThis paper presents mathematical modelling of timber-framed wall where a braced frame with one fictive diagonal is used. The model is suitable for analysis of lateral loads on the structure. Its advantage compared to other models is its simplicity, the fact that it is easy to use in practise, and its suitability for use with simpler and cheaper programs for static and dynamic analysis. Further numerical calculations were performed, which showed good approximation with experimental studies and with the finite element method. The Tower 6 program for static and dynamic analysis has been used to model timber-framed walls. Appropriate stiffness of timber-framed wall is obtained by varying the cross-section of the fictive diagonal. Because the cross-section of the fictive diagonal is directly connected to the analytical calculation of the stiffness of the timber-framed wall, this model is also able to factor in different spacing distance, different sheathing boards, the appearance of tensile cracks in a sheathing board, as well as walls with glazing or openings.
