Seismic Response of a Platform-Frame System with Steel Columns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Timber platform-frame shear walls are characterized by high ductility and diffuse energy dissipation but limited in-plane shear resistance. A novel lightweight constructive system composed of steel columns braced with oriented strand board (OSB) panels ...

A lightweight binocular vision‐supported framework for 3D structural dynamic response monitoring

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 25, Page 4364-4377, 20 October 2025.
Abstract Current three‐dimensional (3D) displacement measurement algorithms exhibit practical limitations, such as computational inefficiency, redundant point cloud data storage, reliance on preset targets, and restrictions to unidirectional measurements. This research aims to address computation efficiency and accuracy issues in binocular camera‐based

Puukerrostalot Suomessa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Opinnäytetyössä oli tavoitteena kertoa puukerrostalojen historiaa sekä puukerrostalon kehitysvaiheita Suomessa näihin päiviin asti. Aineistosta selviää mitä rakennusmateriaaleja puukerrostaloissa käytetään; tällaisia ovat esimer-kiksi CLT:n massiiviset ...

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.

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.

Ambient vibration tests of a cross-laminated timber building [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cross-laminated timber has, in the last 6 years, been used for the first time to form shear walls and cores in multi-storey buildings of seven storeys or more. Such buildings can have low mass in comparison to conventional structural forms. This low mass

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.

Finite Element Analysis of Composite Laminated Timber (CLT)

open access: yesProceedings, 2018
In the research for sustainable construction, cross-laminated timber (CLT) has gained popularity and become a widely used engineered timber product. However, there are few numerical studies of the structural behaviour of CLT.

Numerical Investigations of a Large Fire Exposure Crib Test—Presenting Different Pyrolysis Modelling Methodologies and Numerical Results

open access: yesFire and Materials, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 371-387, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The need for numerical‐based approaches to investigate the fire behaviour in buildings with combustible components is growing due to the increasing use of timber by the construction industry to meet the ‘Climate Action Plan 2050’. This requires consideration of the complex kinetic processes that take place during the burning of the wood in the
