Parametric study on the hygrothermal performance of timber frame walls with external airtightness membranes in a temperate maritime climate [PDF]
In recent years, external airtightness membranes have become an option for timber frame wall systems, as they allow high levels of air- and wind-tightness with an easy installation and provide rainwater protection during construction.

Dynamic and Energy Dissipation Performance of Single-story Pavilion-type Timber Frame
Traditional Chinese pavilion-type timber structure consists of a column base layer, column frame layer, paving layer and roof truss layer, of which the response of each layer under seismic waves indicates that the pavilion-type timber frame is a highly ...
