Design approach for cost-effective hybrid CLT floors

open access: yesGrađevinar, 2022
There is a growing research and production interest for the application of lower-cost hybrid cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels composed of timber layers of dissimilar quality. Therefore, an approach for the design of cost-effective hybrid CLT panels in

An experimental and modeling study on apparent bending moduli of cross-laminated bamboo and timber (CLBT) in orthogonal strength directions

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
In this paper, the bending properties of a 3-ply cross-laminated bamboo and timber (CLBT), prefabricated with the bamboo mat-curtain panel and hem-fir lumber, were examined in the major and minor strength directions, and a 3-ply hem-fir cross-laminated ...

Improvement in Airborne Sound Insulation of Cross-Laminated Timber (Clt) Walls

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly used as shear walls in timber structures due to its excellent structural properties, fire resistance, dimension stability, carbon sequestration capabilities, and energy efficiency, but the effectiveness of this material for airborne sound insulation has received little attention.

Description of small and large-scale cross laminated timber fire tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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 ...

Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...
