Advances in reinforcing of cross laminated timber panels
, 2021 The present paper shows the first results of an ongoing research aimed at studying the mechanical performance of Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) reinforced with natural fibers and steel bars. A bending test program has been carried out on several CLT panels

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1236-1241, September 2026.Abstract This paper investigates the structural performance and reuse potential of shield anchor bolts as mechanical shear connectors in steel‐timber floors. A series of monotonic and cyclic push‐out tests, using a proposed reuse testing protocol, were conducted on cross‐laminated timber panels and steel sections connected by 10 mm and 12 mm diameter ...

Feasibility of cross-laminated secondary timber [PDF]
, 2019 The construction industry creates significant volumes of waste timber, much of which has residual quality and value that dissipates in conventional waste management. This research explored the novel concept of reusing secondary timber as feedstock for

Bond Strength of composite CFRP reinforcing bars in timber [PDF]
, 2015 The use of near-surface mounted (NSM) fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars is an interesting method for increasing the shear and flexural strength of existing timber members.

Contact Force Distribution Between CLT‐Slab And Steel Beam In Slim‐Floor Construction
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1171-1176, September 2026.Abstract In slim‐floor beam–column systems, the distribution of contact forces between cross‐laminated timber (CLT) slabs and steel beams is critical for structural design. Existing guidelines are largely based on concrete floors, although CLT slabs exhibit different structural behavior due to their bidirectional bending stiffness.

Numerical investigation on steel‐timber‐concrete composite (STCC) connections
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1265-1270, September 2026.Abstract This paper investigates numerically the mechanical behavior of steel‐CLT‐concrete composite connections. The cross‐laminated timber (CLT) significantly reduces the carbon footprint of buildings, while steel provides the necessary load‐bearing capacity and the concrete layer enhances vibrational comfort as well as fire and acoustic performances.

Seismic performance evaluation of timber‐steel hybrid framed structures
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1282-1286, September 2026.Abstract Sustainability has become a key driver in structural engineering, encouraging the adoption of materials and systems with reduced environmental impact. Timber, a renewable material with low carbon footprint, is increasingly used both in all‐timber constructions and in hybrid systems with concrete or steel.

Interaction between acoustics and structural engineering in cross laminated timber buildings
, 2021 The structural and the acoustical design of timber buildings are closely intertwined, as often design criteria conceptually lead to potential conflicts. Connections represent a key contact points between the two fields of engineering.
