1 The Wood Products Council and AIA/CES Midply Shearwall System: Concept, Performance and Code Implementation C. Ni, M. Popovski FPInnovations, Building Systems The Wood Products Council is a Registered Provider with The American Institute of Architects Continuing Education Systems (AIA/CES). Credit(s) earned on completion of this program will be reported to AIA/CES for AIA members. Certificates of Completion for both AIA members and non-aia members are available upon request. This program is registered with AIA/CES for continuing professional education. As such, it does not include content that may be deemed or construed to be an approval or endorsement by the AIA of any material of construction or any method or manner of handling, using, distributing, or dealing in any material or product. Questions related to specific materials, methods, and services will be addressed at the conclusion of this presentation. Learning Objectives FPInnovations - Background At the end of this program, participants will be able to: Identify the advantages and disadvantages of mid-ply shear wall systems from the information provided in the presentation. Identify and explain what the various components (anatomy) of a mid-ply shear wall using the various pictures provided in the presentation. Calculate late and create details of the mid-ply shear from the various examples provided in the presentation. Verify the validity of using mid-ply pyshear walls with the information on the research and testing that has been done on the mid-ply wall system which will be provided. FPInnovations is a world leader that specializes in the creation of scientific solutions in support to the Canadian forest sector s global competiveness, and responds to the priority needs of its industrial and government members With over 55 employees across the country and an annual budget of $9 million it is the world s largest private, not-for-profit forest products research institute This unique forestry research centre is capable of providing complete value chain solutions from forest management and transportation to products, such as structural systems

2 Midply Walls Outline Concept of Midply walls Background and Research Information Design Approach Construction ti Details Application Examples Conclusions Why Midply Shearwall? Wood frame construction has evolved to include 3 or 4 storey multi-family residence Large openings, long span, concrete topping have become common practice New construction practices at times create additional demand on lateral load resistance Concept of Midply Shearwall Reasons for Improved Performance Standard shear wall x4 studs mm lumber stud spaced at 46 mm o.c m wood-based panel Sheathing fastened to the narrow face of framing members Midply TM shear wall Sheathing m wood-based panel at the center of the wall mm lumber stud rotated 9 degree to those in standard shearwall Sheathing fastened to the wide face of framing members Sheathing Drywall/Sheathing Cladding/Sheathing Drywall/Sheathing Nails work in double shear thus increasing the lateral load capacity Stud or Plate Greater edge distance - panel chip out failure is reduced Nail head away from panel Grain surface - nail pull through failure is prevented Capable of accommodating additional sheathing direction 89 mm Nail in single shear Sheathing 38 mm 38 mm Stud or Plate Nail in double shear

3 Testing Program Publications Performed over 7 full-scale quasi-static and shaking table tests on Midply walls in several wall configurations Investigated effects of: stud size, stud spacing, nail spacing, vertical loads, construction details Evaluated several types of hold-down connections Details of the tests are published in ASCE Journal of Structural Engineering Midply Wood Shear Wall System: Concept and Performance in Static and Cyclic Testing, 132(9): Midply Wood Shear Wall System: Performance in Dynamic Testing, 133(7): Stud and Plate Details Considered Hold-Down Connections Used End Studs Type 1 Type 2 Intermediate Studs Type 1 Type 2 Regular hold-down Inverted-triangle holddown Double-shear hold-down Strip tie Steel rods Type 1 Type 2 Type 3 Type 4 Type 5

5 Design Possibilities for Midply Shearwalls Code Proposal for 214 CSAO86 in Canada Canada NBCC Alternate Solution Method (based on peer-reviewed evidence). A proposal on Midply wall is being prepared for implementation in 214 CSAO86 USA Alternate Solution Method.
