Analytical and Experimental Lateral-Load Response of Self-Centering Posttensioned CLT Walls
A cross-laminated timber (CLT) panel is a heavy timber structural component fabricated by laminating layers of timber boards in an orthogonal pattern. This paper presents a study of the lateral-load response of self-centering (SC) posttensioned CLT structural walls (i.e., SC-CLT walls), which are constructed by posttensioning CLT wall panels to the foundation with vertical posttensioning steel bars. The bars pass through the CLT panels and are anchored to the CLT panels at the top of the wall and to the foundation at the bottom of the wall. Cyclic loading tests were conducted on a series of SC-CLT wall specimens with different configurations. Structural limit states of SC-CLT walls under lateral load are identified. Two types of analytical models are proposed to predict SC-CLT wall response, namely, a design-oriented analytical model based on simple mathematical expressions, and a fiber-element-based numerical model. Comparisons between the analytical and experimental results are made, which indicate that the simple mathematical expressions and the fiber-element-based numerical model provide accurate estimates of the lateral-load response of SC-CLT walls under cyclic loading.
