The purpose of this study is visualization of the behavior and the resistance mechanism of nailed shear walls. In order to evaluate the influence of gaps between panels to structural behavior, the author conducted shear wall panel tests. In addition to, offsetting panels to the plane of framework was also adopted as an experimental parameter. In this test, 3 axis displacements of panel and frame were measured by motion capture systems. The test results indicate the behavior of the panel on shear performance and strength of the hold down hardware quantitatively.
