  1. 21. DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF CROSS LAMINATED TIMBER FLOORS SUBJECT TO INTERNAL LOADS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik

    Author : Jacob Skoglund; [2020]
    Keywords : CLT; dynamic engineering; engineering; Cross laminated timber; CLT Panels; dynamic response; Timber; CLT floors; Wood; Dynamic behavior; steady state analysis; steady-state; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The deregulation of timber for use in large scale constructions has seen the addition of new innovative timber-based products to a category of products referred to as engineered wood products. A now well established addition to these products is cross laminated timber, or CLT for short. READ MORE

  3. 22. The Weave - An Investigation into the Intersection of Craft and 3D-printing

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Albin Karlsson; Johanna Jonsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Arts and Architecture;

    Abstract : This project is a proposal for structural construction through fabrication and assembly of 3D-printed ceramic bricks developed side by side with a metaphysical investigation into the potential to express the living nature of matter through its material and formal attributes. Through an explorative process in the intersection of craft and digital fabrication, we have developed a system for LDM extrusion of composite bricks consisting of an outer ceramic shell and a low-density cementitious core, an integrated design flow based on procedural generation of fractal patterns and topological weaving, and an assembly logic capable of complex architectural expressions.

  4. 23. Steel vs Composite, Heavy vs light : Sustainability in construction - a case study investigating two concrete form work systems uning a MCDMmethod

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : johan Glimbeck; Olle Ingemarsson; [2019]
    Keywords : sustainability; sustainable; Sustainability in construction; case study; concrete; MCDM;

    Abstract : This Bachelor thesisis  a  comparison  of  two  different  concrete  forms  viewed  from  a sustainable perspective by using a Multi Criteria Decision Making(MCDM)method. Sustainability  is  a  broad  concept,  often  degraded  in threepartswhich  are  financial-,environmental-and  socialsustainability. READ MORE

  5. 24. Correlation of microstructural damage to functional properties of irradiated carbon fibre based composites used in neutron chopper discs

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Hanna Molin; [2019]
    Keywords : radiation; epoxy; carbon fiber; CFRP; ESS; European Spallation Source; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Understanding material behaviour has in the past enabled human development and will continue to characterize the various stages of our future development. The use of neutrons will greatly affect several research areas, such as sustainable energy production and cancer research, due to their interaction with nuclei. READ MORE

  6. 25. Timber-steel hybrid structures with shear-key connections

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Tianxiang Wang; Yue Wang; [2019]
    Keywords : Hybrid structures; shear-key connections; glulam beam; analytical calculation; simulations; experiments.;

    Abstract : Large-dimensional wooden products are highly demanded within the construction sector. Theprimary motive of the thesis is to find a solution to connect small timber elements by meansof special steel devices. READ MORE
