Abstract The effective mixture of structural laminated timber and other materials is expected to extend the possibility of building structures because of the possibility to realize high performance in structural safety. The objective of this study is to evaluate structural performance of wood frames with joints which consisted of structural laminated timber and steel member. A total of five specimens of about one-second scale were tested. Specimens had a columns with 1,050 height and 84x100(mm) section, and a beam with 1,950mm length and 130x100(mm) section. Also, the specimens are stiffened by brace, hwang-toh brick, and autocalved lightweight concrete. The horizontal loading steadily increased by displacement control. The results of the test show that the specimen stiffened with autoclaved lightweight concrete was characterized by fairly good strength and stiffness than those of the other specimens. And, the hysteresis characteristics is very stable and also confirmed the high level of an energy absorption performance.
