The shear performance, such as stiffness and strength, of floor construction of traditional wooden structures is lower than that of structural plywood because the small width board is used. In the large deformation area, however, increasing shear strength and stiffness are produced by friction between boards. In this study, we suggested the formula to predict the shear performance of floor construction of traditional wooden structures considering the increasing strength produced by friction based on the direct shear performance of nails.
