The influences of the number of concrete dowels to shear resistance based on push out tests

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2021
To reduce the depth of floor-beam structures and to save the cost of headed-shear studs, many types of shallow composite beam have been developed during the last few years.

Behaviour evaluation of “sleeved” connectors in composite timber‐concrete floors

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2005
The paper presents the structural solution to the joisted floor when the timber joist of composite cross‐section and the concrete slab are interconnected via a special semi‐rigid connection and form a timber‐concrete joisted floor composite element.

Structural health monitoring of an innovative timber building [PDF]

, 2015
A main focus in timber construction research is the development of innovative, sustainable and reliable structures. In order to determine the long-term structural behaviour of these novel structures, structural health monitoring is a valuable tool.

Evaluation of long‐term behaviour of composite timber‐concrete structures according to EC

Technological and Economic Development of Economy, 2005
The objective of this work is the investigation of long‐term behaviour of composite timber‐concrete beams. Both ultimate and serviceability limit states have to be satisfied according to modern design codes, such as Eurocode 5.

Build n burn: using fire as a tool to evoke, educate and entertain [PDF]

, 2017
The visceral nature of fire was exploited in the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods in Britain by the burning down of timber buildings and monuments, as well as the cremation of the dead. These big fires would have created memories, perhaps even ‘flashbulb

Reliability analysis of a timber truss system subjected to decay [PDF]

, 2013
Assessing the safety of existing timber structures is of paramount importance for taking reliable decisions on repair actions and their extent. The results obtained through semi-probabilistic methods are unrealistic, as the partial safety factors present
