Abstract

Wind-induced vibrations is one of the main design considerations for tall timber buildings due to their flexibility and lightweight nature. Some approaches to solve this problem are the addition of extensive bracing elements, the introduction of semi-rigid connections or the addition of extra mass. In this paper, the response of planar moment-resisting skeleton frames and braced frames with diagonal elements is calculated, and a comparison of peak accelerations between the gust factor approach and a dynamic time-history approach is performed.
