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

An Accurate Finite Element Model to Study the Progressive Collapse of Post-and-Beam Mass Timber Buildings [PDF]
The structural behaviour of mass timber buildings under the removal of a load bearing element is complex. To well understand this phenomenon and ultimately develop scientifically based design guidelines against progressive collapse for this type of ...

Contemporary and Novel Hold-Down Solutions for Mass Timber Shear Walls
‘Mass timber’ engineered wood products in general, and cross-laminated timber in particular, are gaining popularity in residential, non-residential, as well as mid- and high-rise structural applications. These applications include lateral force-resisting

Identification and Trend Analysis of Multistorey Timber Buildings in the SUDOE Region
The construction sector has one of the most polluting economic activities. In this context, several policies are being launched by the European Union to promote the transition to a sustainable economy, and timber construction is a safe way to contribute ...

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