Abstract
The main objective of this study is to analyze a two-story wood structure consisting of shear wall with oil-damper and structural plywood wall using time history response analysis. It is important to evaluate the nonlinearity of support members for connecting damper and structural frame in wood structure. To evaluate the characteristic of support members, shear load tests were conducted. The feature for time history analysis is a point taken after the model of series coupling of nonlinear spring and nonlinear dashpot. First, Shear wall with oil-damper was conducted and it was confirmed that numerical model corresponded to the test result. Then time history analysis was conducted and test result and numerical model agreed well. Finally, seismic design value “Equivalent evaluation of shear wall strength” used in evaluating shear wall with dampers for seismic retrofit in wood structure was also confirmed using Incremental Dynamic Analysis.
