Because of the increasing interest in sustainable construction as well as for other reasons, building industry in Europe is (re)-discovering multi-storey timber structures for construction of mid-rise buildings. In this master’s thesis, an analytical calculation method and modelling approach are presented, to calculate the timber-frame shear-wall racking stiffness. With the research, a specific gap in engineers knowledge is completed, and a contribution is made to the development of multi-storey timber-frame structures in the Dutch context of building engineering.","racking; stiffness; timber; frame; wall; shear; element; deformation; eurocode; multi; storey; meerlaags; houtskeletbouw; HSB; hout; skelet; bouw; stijf; schrank; stijfheid; schranken; meerlaagse; verbindingsmiddelen; verbinding; nagels; schroeven; osb; plywood; particleboard; gypsum; triplex; multiplex; fastener; hold; down; hold-down; multi-storey; gips; karton; vezel; plaat; beplating; test; berekening; analysis; calculation; model; modelleren; modelling; literatuur; onderzoek; slip; modulus; shear; sheathing; compression; perpendicular; grain; racking; truss; brace; perforation; perforated; perforat; board; Kser; ks; Ku","en","master thesis","","","","","","","","","Civil Engineering and Geosciences","Structural Engineering","","Structural and Building Engineering","",""
