Asemi-automatic method to determine the wood failure percentage on shear test specimens [PDF]

, 2018
An alternative method to quantitatively determine the wood failure percentage on shear test specimens was developed, experimentally tested and successfully applied to specimens with typical combinations of adhesive types and wood species used by the ...

Proposal for Defining a Tall Timber Building [PDF]

, 2016
In order to talk about ‘tall’ buildings and more particularly ‘tall, timber’ buildings, it is useful to clarify what is meant by a ‘tall’ and a ‘tall, timber’ building.

Bonding strength between spruce glulam and birch plywood at different load-to-plywood face grain angles

European Journal of Wood and Wood Products
There is growing interest recently in reducing the usage of metals in timber structures. Birch plywood possesses satisfactory mechanical properties compared to other wood-based panels and is promising to be utilized in timber connections as a substitute ...

Quality control of glulam: shear testing of bondlines [PDF]

, 2018
In quality control of glulam, shear testing of bondlines is required. However, in relevant standards the method of applying shear stress to the bondline is only exemplified by a principle schematic.

Towards the “ultimate earthquake-proof” building: Development of an integrated low-damage system [PDF]

, 2015
The 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence has highlighted the severe mismatch between societal expectations over the reality of seismic performance of modern buildings.

Pull-out strength of axially loaded steel rods bonded in glulam parallel to the grain [PDF]

, 2018
Bonded-in steel rods are very efficient in withstanding high forces applied to timber members. Investigations of bonded-in rods started in the late eighties of the last century and several design models were published since. By comparing these approaches

In‐situ investigation of concentration of strains around an implanted bar

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2005
For constructional purposes reinforcement bars or connecting elements (implants) of a stronger material are installed in concrete, plastic, timber or another similar material‐matrix.

Measuring-up in timber: A critical perspective on mid-and high-rise timber building design [PDF]

, 2014
Architects, engineers and researchers alike often cite practical reasons for building with wood. Since the development of curved glulam beams and columns over a century ago, the widespread use of massive structural timber elements has allowed architects ...

Finite element modelling of moisture related and visco-elastic deformations in inhomogeneous timber beams [PDF]

, 2013
Wood is a hygro-mechanical, non-isotropic and inhomogeneous material concerning both modulus of elasticity (MOE) and shrinkage properties. In stress calculations associated with ordinary timber design, these matters are often not dealt with properly. The

REINFORCEMENT OF GLULAM: A REVIEW OF METHODS, MATERIALS, AND NUMERICAL MODELLING

Mix Sustentável
Glued Laminated Timber (GLULAM) has been widely used in construction due to its high strength and versatility. However, it is susceptible to brittle failure under bending, which requires structural reinforcements to improve its performance.
