Seismic design and performance evaluation of post‐tensioned CLT shear walls with coupling U‐shaped flexural plates in Canada

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 2203-2224, August 2025.
Post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber (PT‐CLT) walls coupled with U‐shaped flexural plates (UFPs) have proved to be a low‐damage seismic force‐resisting system (SFRS) due to their self‐centering capability and stable energy dissipation. Global efforts have been made to explore the applicability of PT‐CLT walls as primary SFRSs in mass timber buildings.

BRE‐X Emissions Database for End‐of‐Life Scenarios of Selective Building Construction Materials to Enable Circular Economy in Construction

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Manufacturing and Processing, Volume 7, Issue 3, July 2025.
ABSTRACT In the United States, construction and demolition debris predominately end up in landfills with minimal end‐of‐life Re‐X (recover, recycle, reuse, etc.) scenarios, resulting in large environmental impacts and lost opportunities for material recovery.

Assessment of the Effective Flange Width for Cold-Formed Steel-Timber Composite Beams: A Finite Element Study

open access: yesBuildings
This paper proposes the use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels in conjunction with back-to-back cold-formed steel (CFS) channel or angle sections in combination with laminated veneer lumber (LVL) beam, for composite CFS-timber beams.

Outlook for Cross-Laminated Timber in the United States

open access: yesBioResources, 2014
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a building system based on the use of massive, multi-layered solid wood panels. Although CLT as a construction system has been successful in Europe, only a handful of CLT projects have been built in the U.S.

Carbon intensity of mass timber materials: impacts of sourcing and transportation

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
Mass timber construction is widely considered a promising alternative construction method to reduce buildings’ total life-cycle carbon emissions because wood is a carbon sink. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels, manufactured by gluing lumber layers with

Vibration serviceability design methods for cross laminated timber (CLT) floors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Cross laminated timber (CLT) is an innovative engineering wood product made by gluing layers of solid timber boards placed in orthogonally alternating orientation to the neighbouring layers. CLT panels provide an efficient solution for floors in single- and multi- storey buildings.

Layerwise theory-based finite elements for static and dynamic analysis of CLT-concrete composites with partial shear connection [PDF]

open access: yesGrađevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije
The paper presents a formulation of layered finite elements (based on Reddy's full-layerwise-theory) for static and dynamic analysis of cross-laminated-timber concrete composites (CCC).
