The　corrugated　steel　sheathed　cold-formed　steel　(CFS)　shear　wall　is　an　innovative　lateral　force-resistant　system　with　excellent　potential　for　development.　Many　research　has　been　conducted　on　the　seismic　behavior　of　this　innovative　shear　wall　system.　However,　dynamic　properties　as　well　as　the　failure　mechanism　of　the　CFS　structures　with　corrugated　steel　sheathing　are　still　unclear.　This　study　aimed　to　increase　knowledge　of　the　seismic　performance　of　CFS　structures　through　the　shaking　table　test,　of　which　the　seismic　force　resisting　system　was　provided　by　corrugated　steel　sheathed　shear　walls.　Importantly,　this　test　also　took　into　account　the　extremely　rare　precautionary　intensity.　The　main　results　indicated　that　damage　of　CFS　structure　began　to　occur　in　the　walls　and　floors　under　rare　earthquakes　and　increased　further　with　the　seismic　intensity.　The　final　damage　primarily　occurred　through　the　failure　of　connections　and　inner　panels　under　extremely　rare　precautionary　intensity.　The　degree　of　variation　in　the　dynamic　properties　of　the　structure　increased　further　as　the　damage　accumulated.　In　particular,　the　damping　ratio　of　the　structure　in　the　non-linear　phase　ranged　from　5%　to　7.5%.　It　was　unreasonable　to　assume　that　the　trend　of　the　acceleration　amplification　factor　with　structural　height　was　determined　as　a　linear　relationship.　The　peak　inter-story　drift　ratio　of　the　corrugated　steel　sheathing　CFS　structure　could　meet　the　multi-level　seismic　precaution　requirements　of　the　code.　Finally,　the　seismic　performance　parameters　of　the　CFS　structure　were　evaluated　by　numerical　simulations.　This　research　will　provide　a　reference　for　the　seismic　design　of　CFS　structures　under　extremely　rare　conditions.　©　2022　Elsevier　Ltd
