EPI for Glued Laminated Timber
2014Emulsion Polymer isocyanate adhesive (EPI) is a two component adhesive system which combines an emulsion component and an isocyanate functional cross-linking component. This combination gives glue line performance with the benefits from both thermoplastic and thermosetting adhesive systems. The glue line is cold curing, has high flexibility, low creep,

Ductile Design of Glued-Laminated Timber Beams
Practice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction, 2009Ductility is a fundamental component in the design of robust structures. For timber structures, the unfavorable material characteristics pose particular problems to its realization. Two approaches for improving the post-elastic behavior of glued-laminated timber beams have been investigated by testing and numerical analysis.

Vertically laminated timber bridges
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Construction Materials, 2009This paper reports on research to optimise the design and construction of various forms of stress-laminated timber bridges. Forty bridges, up to 24 m span, and over 60 deck panels have been built and monitored over the last 5 years. A research programme at Napier University has complemented the construction and, through a series of dynamic and static ...

Effect of Lamination Anisotropy and Lay-Up in Glued-Laminated Timbers
Journal of Structural Engineering, 2005This paper presents the analysis of glued-laminated timbers (glulam) subjected to tension perpendicular to the fiber direction, hereby taking into account the cylindrical anisotropy of the individual laminations and specific lay-up configurations. The investigations include two- and three-dimensional finite element analyses of prismatic specimens and ...

The Hygroscopic Warping of Cross-Laminated Timber
2010This chapter focuses on moisture-induced deformations in three-layered cross-laminated timber with a symmetrical build-up, where the fibre direction of the middle layer is oriented perpendicular to that of the outer layers. Dimensional stability, i.e. the ability to resist warping, is of main interest for the application of such wood panels.
