Lateral Movement of Unbraced Wood Composite I-Joists Exposed to Dynamic Walking Loads

The research summarized in this thesis is comprised of an experimental analysis of the mechanical behavior of a wood composite I-joist with different bracing configurations exposed dynamic walking loads. Three 16 in. deep GPI® 65 I-joists were simply supported and laid parallel to each other, whil...
