Abstract
The aim of this paper is to provide a numerical simulation for giving a technical answer to some problems that a structural engineer has to solve when designing a timber building based of Platform Frame technology, i.e., composed of light-frame timber shear walls. For a fully anchored wall, a finite element model, aimed at determining wall stiffness, strength and ductility, is presented. The shear wall is considered as lacking of any constructive imperfection.
