A proposal for a standard procedure to establish the seismic behaviour factor Q of timber buildings
A simplified method for the determination of the seismic behaviour factor q of timber buildings is presented. The proposed approach is a hybrid approach with element testing such as cyclic testing of wall elements combined with numerical modelling ...

Dynamical properties of a large glulam truss for a tall timber building [Elektronisk resurs]
When designing a tall timber building, the accelerations due to wind loads are in many cases decisive. The parameters governing the dynamic behaviour of the building are the structure’s stiffness, damping and mass together with the loads.
