    Keywords : CLT; Cross Laminated Timber; Connection; Rotational Stiffness; Moment Capacity; Modelling; FEM.;

    Abstract : Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) has in recent years become a more important building material. This means that the demand for accurate calculation methods in building standards such as Eurocode 5 has increased. There is limited knowledge about the connections in CLT buildings which is an important part of a CLT structure. READ MORE
