Recycled cross-laminated timber as a low environmental impact alternative to virgin material: Latvia case study

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
Building with wood has become more popular and so has the circularity concept and carbon storage in products. This study aims to analyse the life cycle impacts of cross-laminated timber (CLT) recycling.

Dynamic Capabilities as Drivers of Circular Business Models: Exploring Direct and Indirect Relationships

open access: yesJournal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academic Summary Despite the urgent need for a circular economy, firms' transition from linear to circular business models (CBMs) remains slow. While previous research suggests that dynamic capabilities are the key drivers of this transition, it assumes a direct link, overlooking that these capabilities can facilitate change but do not ...

Structural Design and Critical Comparative Performance Analysis of Cross-Laminated Timber Slab Systems

open access: yesBuildings
Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) has gained increasing attention as sustainable and efficient material for slab systems in construction. However, the lack of standardized design guidelines and comprehensive performance comparisons between different CLT-based

Effects of Wall‐to‐Floor Interactions on Seismic Response of Platform‐Type CLT Buildings

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2880-2896, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Platform‐type cross‐laminated timber (CLT) buildings feature discontinuous wall segments supported by CLT floors. In practice, CLT floors are often treated as rigid diaphragm, yet the wall‐to‐floor interactions (WFIs) associated with flexibility of floors remain insufficiently investigated during seismic performance assessment.

Bending behavior of adhesively-bonded engineered wood-concrete composite decks

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022
Four-point bending tests were conducted on five medium-sized (i.e., 2300 mm in length and 215 mm in width) engineered timber (laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and cross-laminated timber (CLT)) - concrete (wood chip concrete and plain concrete) composite ...

Human‐Induced Vibration of Long‐Span Multi‐Layer Composite Beams—Analytical Calculation Method

open access: yesZAMM - Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics / Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, Volume 106, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The finite element method (FEM) provides a general framework for analyzing virtually all types of structures under various loading conditions. Nevertheless, in certain situations, designers may identify that the structural system exhibits predominantly beam‐like behavior, allowing the use of analytical theories.

Framing Effects on Public Support and Behavioral Responses to Sustainable Forest Management in South Korea

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 444-459, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite South Korea's extensive forest coverage, which accounts for approximately 63% of its total land area, the country imports over 83% of its timber needs and has shown a gradual decline in forest carbon sequestration capacity. The Circular Forest Management Policy (CFMP) addresses these challenges through systematic forest resource ...

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

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1247-1269, May 2026.
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 ...
