Building and EnvironmentBuilding construction and operation accounts for over a third of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption. To determine whether more prevalent use of mass timber (MT) construction could significantly reduce environmental

Robustness of Tall Timber Buildings
, 2021 When designing any building, is it easy to think that damage scenarios such as column loss are too rare to explicitly design for. This, along with several other biases of our brains, make us unable to ensure structural safety by explicitly designing for accidental scenarios, thus making structural robustness – the ability to withstand an unforeseen ...

Phase change material impregnated wood for passive thermal management of timber buildings
International Journal of Energy Research, 2020 The Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) sapwood was impregnated with the eutectic mixture of capric acid (CA) and stearic acid (SA) as phase change material (PCM) via vacuum process for passive thermoregulation in timber buildings.

Design of Timber Columns of Tall Timber Buildings with Consideration of the Long-Term Behaviour [PDF]
Publisher Copyright: © The Author(s) 2025.Timber columns of tall timber buildings need to be designed for combined axial compression and bending under consideration of in-plane buckling and the material-specific long-term behaviour.

Timber! Issues in Treebank Building and Use [PDF]
, 2003 We discuss several treebank conceptions in the literature and show that their requirements may be incompatible, describing then the options taken in the construction of a Portuguese treebank, in what concerns human vs. automatic intervention. Use cases are then listed in connection with a Web search tool (Aguia), whose philosophy and implementation is ...
