Experimental study on the quasi-static progressive collapse response of post-and-beam mass timber buildings under an edge column removal scenario

, 2021
Mid-rise to tall mass timber buildings are becoming internationally popular and are required, for instance in the Eurocode or the Australian building code, to be designed against progressive collapse.

Measurement of Moisture in Wood for Application in the Restoration of Old Buildings

Sensors, 2016
There are many historic buildings whose construction is based on timber frame walls. Most buildings built during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were based on timber frame walls with vertical support elements. These timber frame elements are

Safety assessment of historic timber structural elements

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2018
Dealing with the safety assessment of existing buildings engineers often have to face the diagnosis of old timber structures. The current standards framework does not provide clear prescriptions about the evaluation of these kinds of structures, so the ...
