Abstract
While numerous experimental tests have been conducted on single-story cross-laminated timber (CLT) shear walls, research addressing the drift performance of multistory CLT structures remains limited. This paper presents an experimental parameter study of the lateral performance of two-story platform-type CLT shear wall structures utilizing self-tapping screw connections. The test program consisted of six reversed cyclic tests investigating the impact of: (1) additional floor mass; (2) different angle bracket connections between floors; (3) different tension strap connections between floors; and (4) acoustic insulation layers on both sides of the first-level floor. The results showed that additional dead load increased the lateral resistance and that designing angle brackets to remain elastic limited the sliding contribution to total lateral deformations to less than 10%. The results also showed that the acoustic layer had minimal effect on the performance of the shear walls under the tested conditions. The tension straps significantly influenced the rocking performance, underscoring their importance to achieve similar story drifts in multistory CLT shear wall structures. Finally, while preceding single-story shear wall tests allowed designing the structures, hold-down uplifts on single-story tests were shown not to be representative for tension strap uplifts in multistory tests.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
