In this paper, the seismic overstrength-related force modification factor (Ro) of light-frame wood shearwall buildings is studied using the recently developed Performance-Based Unified (PBU) procedure by the National Research Council Canada (NRC). Several parameters including seismicity level, number of storeys and building heights, building irregularities, design assumptions, presence of gravity loads, shearwall aspect ratios were studied.
