Abstract
The restoring force characteristic of wooden houses is slip type. The energy absorption of slip type restoring force characteristic is less than energy absorption of normal bi-linear characteristic restoring. On the other, a shere wall of wooden houses is eveluated with the resisting force ratio of various wooden walls. In this paper, we develop the wooden wall which has the normal bi-linear restoring force characteristic and high resisting force ratio of various wooden walls with a steel frame and a friction dumper. As results, the wall that we developed has the bi-linear restoring force characteristic, and the resisting force ratio of various wooden walls is 4.0. The bearing force deterioration of this wall is 0.1-0.2kN/cycle.
