The system enabling to build the shear walls using Japanese cedar planks more ductile, resistant and easy than the conventional method, was studied. New fasteners to connect planks on shear walls were developed by utilizing the compressive strength of wood in parallel to the grain and four types of shear walls were made for the full-scale shear tests. As a result, S.R.F with 1P-size shear walls were found to be 2.4, 3.2 and 2.5 and also Shear Resistance Factor with 2P-size one was 2.7. All the shear walls have been found with the high ductile performance of over 1/15 radian.
