Evaluating Timoshenko Method for Analyzing CLT under Out-of-Plane Loading
Buildings, 2020 Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product made up of layers of structurally graded timber, where subsequent layers are oriented orthogonally to each other.

Numerical investigation on steel‐timber‐concrete composite (STCC) connections
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1265-1270, September 2026.Abstract This paper investigates numerically the mechanical behavior of steel‐CLT‐concrete composite connections. The cross‐laminated timber (CLT) significantly reduces the carbon footprint of buildings, while steel provides the necessary load‐bearing capacity and the concrete layer enhances vibrational comfort as well as fire and acoustic performances.

Effect of surface preparation and adhesive type on CFRP–steel bridge joints
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 80-85, September 2026.Abstract Strengthening steel bridges using carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates is an effective technique to increase load‐carrying capacity and extend the service life of ageing infrastructure. The performance of CFRP strengthening systems depends strongly on the quality of the adhesive bond between steel and CFRP, making adhesive ...

SEISMIC DESIGN OF CROSS-LAMINATED TIMBER BUILDINGS
Wood and Fiber Science, 2018 The increasing interest in cross-laminated timber (CLT) construction has resulted in multiple international research projects and publications covering the manufacturing and performance of CLT. Multiple regions and countries have adopted provisions for CLT into their engineering design standards and building regulations.

Seismic performance evaluation of timber‐steel hybrid framed structures
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1282-1286, September 2026.Abstract Sustainability has become a key driver in structural engineering, encouraging the adoption of materials and systems with reduced environmental impact. Timber, a renewable material with low carbon footprint, is increasingly used both in all‐timber constructions and in hybrid systems with concrete or steel.

Homogenized material properties for cross‐laminated timber
PAMM, 2018 AbstractIn this contribution the coefficients of the elastic stiffness tensor of a generalized shell section for cross‐laminated timber (CLT) slabs are derived by application of a numerical homogenization scheme based on a repeating unit cell (RUC).

Interlocking connection for a hybrid steel‐timber floor system
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1230-1235, September 2026.Abstract Combining renewable timber with high‐efficiency steel enables the development of sustainable and high‐performance composite structures. To date, steel‐timber floor systems have primarily relied on a stacked construction method, where timber panels are placed on top of steel beams and connected via mechanical fasteners or adhesives.

Comparative Study of Optimally Designed Hybrid Steel‐Timber Coupled Shear Wall Systems
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1159-1164, September 2026.Abstract Hybrid timber‐based structural systems are increasingly adopted in high‐seismic regions, where cross‐laminated timber (CLT) coupled wall (CW) systems provide efficient lateral resistance. This study compares optimally designed CLT–CW systems employing conventional steel link beams (SLBs) and diagonally arranged buckling‐restrained braces (BRBs)
