Gypsum Wall Damage Investigation
Damage to gypsum wallboard can be an indicator of the level of lateral movement experienced during an earthquake. A series of 17 experiments conducted at San Jose State University recorded common failure modes of gypsum wallboard typical of construction in woodframe structures. These experimental tests showed the relationship between lateral movement of the ceiling and floor and the type and extent of the resulting damage. This knowledge can be used to make field judgments about the level of movement that may have resulted during an earthquake or other severe lateral loading. This paper will review the damage thresholds observed during the experimental testing and the fragility curves developed for each damage threshold.
