Abstract [en]
The authors of this paper have developed a method for plastic design of timber frame shear walls. Recently, a Swedish handbook has been presented based on the principles of this plastic design method. In this paper a simplified design method for transverse walls, i.e. walls used for anchoring of shear walls against uplift, is presented. Calculated load-carrying capacities of transverse walls using the simplified method seem to be in fairly good agreement with calculated capacities using the finite element method and agree fairly well with measured capacities obtained from full scale testing of transverse walls.
