Probabilistic Models for the Tensile Properties of Split Boards and Their Application for the Prediction of Bending Properties of Engineered Timber Products Made of Norway Spruce

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The main strength and elastic properties of structural timber products, such as glued laminated timber (glulam; GLT) and cross-laminated timber (CLT), are usually described via load-bearing models, which use the tensile properties parallel to the grain ...

A novel method for producing a glulam from the wood of peeler cores

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2021
This study presents an opportunity for rational utilization of poplar wood peeler cores in the production of glued laminated timber (glulam) beams. An approach for optimal use of small-diameter raw material with a circular cross-section is also proposed

Glued Laminated Timber in Architecture [PDF]

open access: yesDrvna 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.

Numerical modelling of CFRP internally reinforced glulam beams [PDF]

open access: yesGrađevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije
Numerous studies have proven that timber structures can be effectively reinforced using fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. In this paper a nonlinear finite element model was developed to predict bending behaviour of glulam beams reinforced with ...

Charring Behaviour of Mass Timber: A Comparison of Thin Intumescent Coatings and Plasterboard

open access: yesFire 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

open access: yesEarthquake 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.

Evaluation of Tensile Strength of a Eucalyptus grandis and Eucalyptus urophyla Hybrid in Wood Beams Bonded Together by Means of Finger Joints and Polyurethane-Based Glue [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2016
Created in the 1940s, the splice finger-joint type for wood has now been more used to compose structural materials wood base as Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) and Cross Laminated Timber (CLT).

The Consequential Climate Impact of Bioenergy and Wood Products: A New Framework for the Assessment of Biogenic Carbon

open access: yesGCB 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.

Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1247-1269, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...
