Earthquake resistant frame using diagonal glulam columns and steel tie rods are suggested as an innovative timber structure system, implemented in a real building project. This structure system contains glulam columns resisting lateral and vertical load, enables buildings to have flexible architectural space within them. To confirm initial stiffness and strength, a loading test for a partial frame of this structure was carried out. In addition, method for creating stress analysis model of this frame for structure design is suggested by FEM analysis tracing the result of the experiment.
