Design and modeling of glulam beams with holes
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2021 Abstract The paper presents a sketch of design recommendations and numerical simulations of stress distributions in perforated double-tapered beams made of glued laminated timber, taking into account the reinforcement used. Conscious design requires, according to the authors opinion, calculations performed using the finite element method.

Glued Laminated Timber in Architecture [PDF]
Drvna Industrija, 2010 Structural glued laminated timber (glulam) is an engineered, stress-rated product that consists of two or more layers of lumber (i.e., laminations) glued together with the grain running lengthwise.

Charring Behaviour of Mass Timber: A Comparison of Thin Intumescent Coatings and Plasterboard
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study compares the charring behaviour of mass timber under varied heating conditions when protected by either different thin intumescent coating types or fire‐rated plasterboard layers. Bench‐scale fire experiments were conducted using the Heat‐Transfer Rate Inducing System (H‐TRIS).

Effects of Wall‐to‐Floor Interactions on Seismic Response of Platform‐Type CLT Buildings
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2880-2896, September 2026.ABSTRACT Platform‐type cross‐laminated timber (CLT) buildings feature discontinuous wall segments supported by CLT floors. In practice, CLT floors are often treated as rigid diaphragm, yet the wall‐to‐floor interactions (WFIs) associated with flexibility of floors remain insufficiently investigated during seismic performance assessment.

Ductile Moment-Resisting Timber Connections: A Review
Buildings, 2022 In the last two decades, high-rise timber buildings have been built using the glulam truss system, even with limited openings. Moment-resisting timber frames (MRTF) with semi-rigid beam-to-column connections can be an architecture-friendly way to provide

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.This work proposes a new framework for the assessment of biogenic carbon and calculates new emission factors based on full forest carbon dynamics, with harvest intensity showing a clear effect on the emission factors. Temporal dynamics as well as short‐ and long‐term impacts highlight the importance of considering time in the assessment of biogenic CO2.

Use of Hevea brasiliensis Rubberwood for Glulam Beam Production
Floresta e Ambiente, 2018 In Brazil, Hevea brasiliensis plantations are principally destined for latex production. In the national literature however, there are few studies on the mechanical properties of rubberwood. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of rubberwood in the
