A comparative study of compression behaviors of cross-laminated timber and glued-laminated timber columns

Construction and Building Materials, 2019
Abstract This work investigated the different axial compression behaviors of cross-laminated timber columns (CLTCs) and control glued-laminated timber columns (GLTCs). The average compression modulus of elasticity (MOE) and strength values of the CLTCs were lower than those of the control GLTCs and appeared to be dependent on the area ratio in the ...

Laminating Effects in Glued-Laminated Timber Beams

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1995
Existing lamination and beam test results were analytically reviewed to quantify the laminating effect for European and North American glued-laminated (glulam) timber. The laminating effect is defined as the increase in strength of lumber laminations when bonded in a glulam beam compared with their strength when tested by standard test procedures ...

Steel‐Reinforced Glued Laminated Timber

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1989
A possible candidate for replacement of tension laminations in glulam beams is examined. The replacement is a composite of concrete-reinforcing steel embedded in oriented flakeboard. Pullout tests were used to select the best of three possible furnishes for the composite. After this selection, 2 in. × 6 in.

Vertically laminated timber bridges

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Construction Materials, 2009
This 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 ...

Fully Stress Laminated Timber Bridge

IABSE Reports, 2018
<p>The combination of zero carbon emission infrastructures and low construction costs has become the most important challenge for civil engineers. Specifically, in developing countries, governments and communities should demand infrastructures which embrace a different design methodology using low impact materials and innovative building ...

EPI for Glued Laminated Timber

2014
Emulsion 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,
