| Abstract | This dissertation focuses on the investigative process of extracting dynamic characteristics of wood-frame structures from measured seismic response. Although there has been some research measuring modal parameters in an experimental setting, most tests have been conducted on a structural component level (Fischer, et al. 2001). Many of the tests on fullscale wood-frame housing since the 1950s have been summarized in Wood-frame Project Testing and Analysis Literature Review (Filiatrault 2001). Instead of replicating the entire literature review, accomplishments pertaining to the modal parameters and dynamic characteristics of full-scale wood-frame housing are highlighted in this chapter. An overall summary at the end of the chapter will present notable findings and identify areas of further research. |
