Charney Hall Redesign Using Cross-Laminated Timber [PDF]

, 2018
Santa Clara University’s new law building, Charney Hall, was constructed in 2018 using steel and concrete, but was redesigned by this team using Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) and Glue- Laminated Timber (glulams).

Probabilistic sensitivity analysis to understand the influence of micromechanical properties of wood on its macroscopic response [PDF]

, 2017
This paper investigates the influence of the uncertainty in different micromechanical properties on the variability of the macroscopic response of cross-laminated timber plates, by means of a probabilistic sensitivity analysis.

Char Layer Thickness Evolution During Structural Timber Fire Experiment and Final Density Profile

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper evaluates several non‐destructive experimental methods for determining the char layer thickness and its density profile in structural timber samples exposed to standard ISO 834 fire curve experiments. Microwave echo pulse, ultrasonic echo pulse, X‐ray computed tomography, and resistance drilling were evaluated.

Influence of Adhesive Type on Heat Induced Delamination in Tension Loaded Shear Lap Cross‐Laminated Timber Samples Exposed to Radiant Heat Flux

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat induced delamination (HID) is a phenomenon in engineered wood products which may result in the detachment of the bonded timber lamellae before charring propagates to the bond line interphase. This study aims to correlate the thermal degradation of two 1‐c‐polyurethane adhesives at the microscale to the thermo‐hydro‐mechanical behaviour of

Potencial de implantação do sistema construtivo Cross Laminated Timber – CLT no Brasil/ Potential for implementing the Cross Laminated Timber – CLT construction system in Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Development, 2021
O sistema construtivo Cross Laminated Timber – CLT tem ganhado destaque mundialmente nas ultimas decadas. Em paises europeus e norte-americanos ha diversos registros de edificios verticais construidos em CLT. No Brasil seu emprego ainda e pouco expressivo, embora o setor florestal tenha producao significativa.

SUITABILITY OF ASPEN (POPULUS TREMULA L.) FOR CROSS-LAMINATED TIMBER (CLT)

Wood Research, 2023
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) CLT is an excellent material for building and high load-bearing structural applications, but its fabrication and use are limited to softwood only. The suitability of aspen (Populus tremula L) wood for manufacturing CLT was assessed by using two adhesives, one-component polyurethane (1C-PUR) and melamine adhesive (ME ...
