Modeling Mass Timber Rocking Walls Using OpenSees

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on modeling rocking cross-laminated timber (CLT) walls using OpenSees. I’m reaching out to the community to ask if anyone has experience or resources related to nonlinear material modeling for timber walls in OpenSees, especially with consideration of orthotropic properties.

Best regards,
Navid

Is there a Forum site for Opensees somewhere? not sure if you can find any wood applications though.

The nonlinearity mainly comes from the connections. You can find publications that modelled CLT shear walls using OpenSees. But first, you need to have the connection data as inputs.
