Dynamic Characteristics of a Wood Frame Structure: (II) the Effect of Artificial Damage
Abstract:
A full-scale, three-storey wood frame structure had been tested in-situ to investigate the changes of dynamic properties due to artificial damage. Beams and braces of the test structure were removed, to simulate damage, and then reassembled, to simulate rehabilitation. Free vibration tests were performed during every stage of the tests. The natural frequencies and damping ratios were obtained using modal parameter identification technique based on the Hilbert-Huang Transform. It is shown that, when the structure is damaged or rehabilitated, the natural frequency changes in accord with the structural stiffness in general while the damping ratio varies irregularly.
