Influence of the Force Arm on the Flexural Performance of Prestressed Glulam Beams

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
In recent years, extensive attention has been drawn to prefabricated buildings, particularly wood construction. Glulam beams are the major supporting components of modern wood buildings.

Modelling of Glulam beams pre-stressed by compressed wood [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Finite element models were, in the first time, developed to simulate the pre-stressing behaviour of Glulam beams with insertion of compressed wood blocks, which were further used to simulate the structural behaviour of the pre-stressed beams subjected to

Direct Displacement-based Seismic Design of Glulam Frames with Buckling Restrained Braces

open access: yes, 2023
This paper presents a direct displacement-based design (DDBD) approach for the buckling restrained braces (BRBs) braced glue-laminated timber (glulam) frame (BRBGF) structures.

Adhesively bonded joints between spruce glulam and birch plywood for structural applications: experimental studies by using different adhesives and pressing methods

open access: yesWood Material Science & Engineering, 2023
Due to the increasing interest in reducing the usage of metals in the construction sector, birch plywood has shown good potential in structural engineering and timber connections as a substitute for the more conventional slotted-in metal plate solutions.

Effect of Primary Spruce Lamella Aging on the Bending Characteristics of Glulam Beams

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Glued laminated (glulam) beams are used in the roofs, ceilings and walls of buildings as well as in bridges and towers. At present, with the limitation of tree harvesting, the production of glulam beams from recycled wood sources is implemented with the ...

Cyclic Behavior and Modeling of Bolted Glulam Joint with Cracks Loaded Parallel to Grain

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Under varying humidity and temperature conditions, with the constraint of metal fasteners to wood shrinkage, cracks along the bolt lines are generally observed in bolted glulam joints.

Feasibility of glued laminated timber beams with tropical hardwoods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceA feasibility study of glulam was carried out in French Guiana using local wood species. The aim was to determine gluing parameters affording satisfactory behaviour to manufactured glulam in a tropical climate.

Glulam mechanical characterization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The glued laminated timber (glulam) mechanical properties may be evaluated through the determination of the key mechanical properties of the lamellae that compose that element.
