Impacts of some chemicals on combustion properties of impregnated laminated veneer lumber (LVL)

Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 2019
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and borax (Na2B4O7.5H(2)O) on combustion properties of laminated veneer lumbers (LVLs) with two, three and four-layered, produced from white oak (Quercus alba) and chestnut (Cestanea sativa Mill.) woods. Veneers obtained for LVL were impregnated according to ASTM-D 1413.

Charring Rates for Different Cross Sections of Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL)

2010
Current research at the University of Canterbury is investigating the performance of a new type of timber floor system made of a timber-concrete composite. This newly proposed timber floor system uses double LVL members connected together with screwed connections to form one larger LVL member. Recent large scale fire tests showed that the joint between

Modeling of Laminated Veneer Lumber Beams with Holes Using Cohesive Elements

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2016
AbstractOpenings are usually required in timber beams to allow services like plumbing, sewage pipes, and electrical wiring to run through. These openings can cause significant stresses perpendicular to the grain direction, which may create cracks in the timber due to the low tensile strength perpendicular to grain.

Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of the Temperature Distribution Within Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) Exposed to Fire

Journal of Structural Fire Engineering, 2010
The fire resistance evaluation of a timber member is an important and complex problem of structural design. In order to solve this problem, it is crucial to have reliable information on the temperature distribution within a timber cross-section exposed to fire, and to develop a numerical model for the prediction of such a quantity.

"Design of reinforcement around holes in laminated veneer lumber (LVL) beams"

2012
Many practical situations require holes in timber beams. When the hole is large relative to the depth, the failure of the beam is governed by crack initiation and propagation around the hole. Cracking of a timber beam decreases the capacity of the beam considerably.

Holding Performance of Dowels in Solid Wood and Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL)

2015
Bu çalışmada, farklı ağaç türlerinden hazırlanan lamine malzemelerin(LVL), liflere dik ve paralel doğrultudaki kavela tutma mukavemetleri, masif ağaç malzemelerle karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmiştir. Deney örnekleri, Türkiye mobilya endüstrisindeki yaygın kullanımları nedeniyle Doğu kayını (Fagus orientalis Lipsky), Sarıçam (Pinus sylvestris L.) ve ...

A Conceptual Review of Structural Performance of Mengkulang Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) Roof Trusses

2016
In Malaysia, the development of engineered timber product (ETP) such as laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and glued laminated timber (glulam) in manufacturing and construction has not been encouraged, due to limited data either on the data for engineering properties or data on the structural behaviour.
