- Abstract
Wood is a green material in line with the sustainable development strategy. From the excellent performance of engineering wood products, modern wood structures represented by light wood structures have gained more development opportunities. As an indispensable part of light wood structure systems, the wood-frame shear wall plays a vital role in the bearing capacity and earthquake resistance of light wood structure systems. This paper is focused on a review of the lateral performance of wood-frame shear walls and classifies the influencing factors in relevant experimental research into three categories, including internal factors such as shear wall structure, external factors such as test scheme, and other factors of material production and test process. Finally, the research prospects in this field were introduced based on the summary of the research status. This work can be a reference for further research on the lateral performance of wood-frame shear walls.
