Abstract

The CUREE-Caltech Woodframe Project is currently underway in California as a combined research and implementation effort to improve the seismic performance of woodframe buildings, a need which was brought to light by the January 17, 1994 Northridge, California Earthquake in the Los Angeles metropolitan region. The objective of this paper is to briefly present the results of shake table tests on a full-scale two-story woodframe house conducted within the CUREE-Caltech Woodframe Project.
