Abstract：A total of 12 pieces shear-wall segments were fabricated with three kinds of frame materials including Larix kaempferi dimension lumber,Larix gmelinii dimension lumber and imported SPF,and imported OSB as sheathing panels.The shear-wall were tested under monotonic and cyclic loads respectively,and the effects of different materials of frame on the bearing capacity,elastic shear stiffness,ultimate displacement and energy dissipation of shear walls were investigated.Test results show that the bearing capacities of shear-wall with Larix kaempferi,Larix gmelinii and SPF frames are 9.59,7.08,9.05 kN/m,respectively.The ultimate displacements are 58.09 mm,53.33 mm and 65.84 mm,while the stiffnesses are 1 369.92,1 126.30,1 119.04 kN/m,respectively.The energy dissipations are 7 839.89,5 262.74,8 027.20 J/m,respectively.It can be concluded that Larix kaempferi dimension lumber has a good performance as frame members of shear-wall as shown in the tests.
