Mechanical characterization of timber in structural sizes: bending and compression tests [PDF]
This paper presents the results obtained in a series of tests on Pinus Pinaster Ait. timber specimens, using the prEN408:2000, to estimate the local and global Young’s modulus and strength both in bending and compression parallel to the grain.

Abstract Despite calls for wider inclusion of diverse actors in conservation management, researchers tend to lump actors together into one group, potentially overlooking heterogeneity within the groups themselves—in turn, hampering inclusiveness. The risk of stereotyping social actors and oversimplifying their differentiated preferences for Nature's ...

Description of small and large-scale cross laminated timber fire tests [PDF]
A large-scale fire test was conducted on a compartment constructed from cross laminated timber (CLT). The internal faces of the compartment were lined with non-combustible board, with the exception of one wall and the ceiling where the CLT was exposed ...
