1. 1. Glued connection for TCC slabs : Experimental and Numerical investigation

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Ervin Halilovic; Seid Lotinac; [2022]
   Keywords : TCC connection; Composite element; Adhesive connection; Silicone Adhesive; Polyurethane Adhesive; Slip modulus; Shear stress; Cohesive elements; Traction seperation law; Mullins effect; Hysteresis;

   Abstract : Timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures are becoming more popular in several industrial applications as an efficient method for optimizing the structural performance and the cost of construction as well as lowering the emissions of carbon dioxide. TCC floors are more sustainable than pure concrete floors and more resistant to vibrations and excessive deflections than pure wooden floors. READ MORE

3. 2. Complex Stress States In Structural Birch Plywood : An experimental study on the behaviour of birch plywood in structural applications

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Patrik Hedlund; Pontus Persson; [2021]
   Keywords : large-span-structures; trusses; truss nodes; timber connections; engineered wood products; birch plywood; glued connections; dowelled connections; gusset plates;

   Abstract : For structural engineers, the two most important design criteria are utility andsafety. It is about making sure that a structural component is reliable enough not toendanger any of a building's users, while at the same time being as sustainable andefficiently designed as possible.

4. 3. Shear stiffness of cross laminated timber diaphragms - A study of the influence of connection and member stiffness

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

   Author : Gustaf Olausson; [2021]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Since ancient times, buildings have been constructed with the use of timber and during the modern era, new types of timber products have been developed. Today, more constructions, especially residential buildings are being built with timber as the main load-bearing material. READ MORE

5. 4. Glass-fibre reinforcement on steel to timber connections. : A parametric study through FEM modelling on double-shear single-dowelled connections.

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Ramón Merlo García; [2017]
   Keywords : Timber connection; Glass-fibre reinforcement; Parametric study; Finite element analysis.;

   Abstract : In a context where timber is gaining popularity as a building material and glass-fibre reinforced composites (GFRC) are becoming more accessible in a wide variety of formats, it is considered appropriate to reconsider the combination of these two materials. Additionally, given the increasing use of laminated timber elements where stiffness and strength are better controlled, attention is drawn back to the connection between elements. READ MORE

6. 5. Glued timber connections : Experimental and numerical study of tension behavior under various influencing parameters

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT); Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Shengmin Xu; Peiwei Tan; [2015]
   Keywords : Adhesive; dowel; timber; glued timber connections; finite element model; tension; ABAQUS;

   Abstract : Glued connections are relatively new in structural timber engineering. They are expected to show high connection stiffness as well as a high connection strength compared to mechanical connections e.g. dowel‐type connections. READ MORE
