ROBUSTNESS ANALYSIS OF INNOVATIVE CONNECTIONS FOR POSTAND-BEAM MASS TIMBER BUILDINGS

open access: yesWorld Conference on Timber Engineering 2025
The design of structural robustness and the prevention of disproportionate collapses in mass timber buildings are becoming relevant considerations due to the increasing height of these buildings. Despite the number of multistory timber buildings has rapidly increased during the last decade, current codes lack specific guidance on mitigating ...

Environmental Impact of a Mass Timber Building—A Case Study [PDF]

open access: yesForests, 2021
The study focuses on a life cycle assessment of a wood-based residential building and evaluates the magnitude of individual construction components—foundations, flooring, peripheral wall, inner walls, ceiling, roof, windows, and doors—in terms of climate change; acidification; eutrophication; photochemical oxidation; depletion of abiotic elements and ...
