The authors have previously proposed a calculation method to reproduce the mechanical behavior of the joints in CLT rocking frames as a damage control technology for mid- to high-rise wooden buildings. However, there are issues such as the model used for the evaluation may differ from the actual behavior, and the embedded stiffness at the contact area between the column and beam was calculated based on predictions from other literature. Therefore, the goal of this research is to understand the mechanical behavior of the column-beam joints of CLT rocking structures and repropose an evaluation method.
