Abstract

The paper presents mathematical models for solving reinforced panel shear walls, which are used as loadcarrying capacity walls in the construction of prefabricated timber structures. The panels are composed of timber frame and fibre-gypsum boards which are reinforced with steel diagonals. Analytical solutions obtained by mathematical modelling with the fictive thickness and height of fibre-gypsum boards are proposed. The obtained computational results are compared with deflections and cracks measured on test samples. They are also compared with those obtained on the panels without reinforcement.

Keywords
