Wood Shearwall Reliability Inherent in AF&PA/ASCE 16
In the United States the vast majority of single and multi-family homes are designed and built using light-frame wood construction. These structures resist lateral loads, i.e. wind or earthquake induced, primarily through a system of wood shearwalls. The LRFD design standard for the construction of wood shearwalls is AF&PA/ASCE 16. The purpose of this paper is to present the results of a preliminary analysis to assess the reliability of wood shearwalls subjected to wind and earthquake forces, one task of an ASCE/SEI Special Project entitled "Re-evaluation of LRFD for Engineered Wood Products: Keeping Pace with Changes in ASCE 7". This was accomplished by examining the performance of a portfolio of twelve different wood shearwalls, each designed to AF&PA/ASCE 16. An ultimate strength limit state was used and was treated as deterministic within the analyses, that is to say material uncertainty was neglected. These results are expected to provide some insight into the inherent reliability level of wood shearwalls in the current LRFD design standard.
