Double‐lap shear tests on steel‐timber glued connections at elevated temperatures

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1183-1188, September 2026.
Abstract This paper presents the results of an experimental campaign comprising nearly 30 double‐lap shear tests on steel–timber glued connections conducted at ambient conditions and at temperatures up to 150 °C. Small‐scale specimens made of structural steel (S355) plates and glued laminated timber (GL24h) were bonded using a one‐component ...

Fire design methods for structures with timber framework

Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2019
Timber structures are environmentally friendly in terms of decreasing the impact of human activity on the planet. Reliability of timber structures can be provided by the corresponding fire resistance so as fire risk is one of the most significant ...

Thermo‐Mechanical Behaviour of Steel–Timber Composite Beams: A Numerical Analysis

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1323-1328, September 2026.
Abstract While the environmental benefits of steel–timber composite (STC) structures are increasingly recognised, research into their fire performance remains limited. This study presents a numerical investigation into the fire behaviour of STC composite beams. A finite element model is developed and validated against published experiments.

Parametric Analysis of Moment-Resisting Timber Frames Combined with Cross Laminated Timber Walls and Prediction Models Using Nonlinear Regression and Artificial Neural Networks

Buildings
The light weight and moderate stiffness of multistorey timber buildings make them susceptible to increased lateral displacements and accelerations under service-level wind loading.

Very Tall Wooden Buildings with Cross Laminated Timber

Procedia Engineering, 2011
AbstractCross Laminated Timber (CLT, XLAM) is a product extremely well suited for multi-storey buildings because of its versatility. With lengths up to 16 meters and the possibility of extending with mechanical joints or glued connections, widths of up to 2.5 meters depending on manufacturer and thicknesses up to 500mm, almost any necessary shape can ...

Experimental evaluation of self‐drilling dowels and densified wood dowels as connectors under shear and withdrawal for steel–timber composite beams

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1195-1201, September 2026.
Abstract I‐sections dominate conventional steel construction but exhibit direction‐dependent stability behavior, and in fire the steel's modulus of elasticity decreases rapidly. We therefore investigate a composite load‐bearing system in which the web cavities of I‐section beams are infilled with timber elements made of spruce glulam (GLT‐S) and beech ...

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.
