Analysis of Metal Plate Connected Wood Truss Assemblies under Out-of-Plane Loads
Metal plate connected wood trusses (MPCWT) are not designed to carry out-of-plane loads and performance of MPCWT assemblies under these loads are not considered. The goal of this research is to compare structural analysis models of MPCWT assemblies under out-of-plane loads to previous experimental data. The rotational stiffness of truss-wall connections, and truss bracing elements were evaluated for inclusion in the structural analysis model. A parametric study considering load location, joint stiffness and dimensions of MPCWT assembly was conducted. The structural analysis model of the MPCWT assemblies had first truss deflections within 4% difference of experimental results. Variation of the load location along the length of the MPCWT assembly produced a 9% difference in maximum deflection. The rotational stiffness of lateral and diagonal bracing should be included as model inputs for the accurate representation of experimental behavior since neither pin nor rigid assumptions were not correct.
