Timber-steel-hybrid beams for multi-storey buildings
For modern multi-storey buildings timber-steel-hybrid elements present a very efficient construction method. The combination of these two materials leads to economic and ecologic benefits as the construction height can be optimized, the earthquake ...

The conceptual design changes triggered by timber boards [PDF]
After the introduction of timber boards as diaphragms in light-frame construction opened the way to modern timber construction, three major design changes would follow: the elements become multifunctional, they can work structurally in two directions ...

Serviceability and ultimate performance of long span timber floor modules [PDF]
The advent of engineered wood products (EVVP’s) such as LVL and glulam as well as a new generation of adhesives has provided the means to fabricate large section, long spanning structural members with similar structural properties to that of steel or ...

ROBUSTNESS ANALYSIS OF INNOVATIVE CONNECTIONS FOR POST-AND-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.

The influence of the hanger configuration in the arch and deck bending moments under asymmetric loads is widely used nowadays for improved designs of arch bridges. In this work, by means of a parametric study, those hanger configurations that most efficiently increase both the natural frequencies and buckling factors are identified, simultaneously ...

Serviceability assessment of the 270 m timber footbridge over Guadalhorce river
This paper presents the methodology used for the dynamic identification and the vibration serviceability assessment of the 270 m pedestrian footbridge in the Desembocadura del Guadalhorce Natural Park, Málaga, Spain. Designed by Media Madera Ingenieros Consultores S.L., the structure comprises 215 tonnes of glulam timber and almost 15 tonnes of ...

Vibration response of long cable-stayed timber footbridge – case study [Elektronisk resurs]
Timber footbridges with a span larger than 30 meters are sensitive to vibrations and dynamic factors must therefore be taken into considerations in the design.
