1. 1. Evaluation of a testing method for shear stiffness properties for cross laminated timber

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

   Author : Calle Lind; [2022]
   Keywords : CLT; cross laminated timber; EN 16351; four-point bending; rolling shear modulus; FE-modelling; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Cross laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product that was first developed in the 1990s. Since then it has grown in popularity thanks to its many advantages such as: low environment impact, high degree of prefabrication and low weight. As the material is relatively new the standardization process is still in the early stages. READ MORE

3. 2. Stability of building structures using NLFEA including second order effects : Applications with the software ATENA-GiD

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : Alexandros Petkoglou; [2021]
   Keywords : Non-linear analysis; second order effects; prefabricated buildings; ATENA; GiD; slip connection; Icke-linjär analys; andra ordnings effekter; förtillverkade byggnader; prefabricerade byggnader; ATENA; GiD; glidkoppling;

   Abstract : In Sweden, prefabrication in the construction industry is a very common system. In prefabricated structures, there are various kinds of connections and generally many hinged connections. Therefore, it is of high interest to study the behavior of the prefabricated buildings in relation to the connections. READ MORE

4. 3. Analysis of a Prefabricated Concrete Skew Angle Slab Bridge

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Pär Bengtsson; Johan Wallin; [2019]
   Keywords : Finite Element Model; Skew Angle Slabs; Slab Bridge; Prefabrication;

   Abstract : Prefabricated concrete elements are widely used in the construction industry today. With advantages such as time savings, increased safety at the construction site and minimized material usage, prefab becomes a major challenger to the traditional on-site casting construction method.

5. 4. Sustainable urban development through increased construction in wood? : a study of municipalities’ cooperation in major construction projects in Sweden

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Products

   Author : Fredrik Sjöström; [2018]
   Keywords : building materials; climate; collaboration; construction project; multi-family housing; qualitative; semi structured; sustainability; wood construction; byggmaterial; byggprojekt; flerbostadshus; hållbarhet; klimat; kvalitativ; samarbete; semistrukturerad; träbyggnation;

   Abstract : The increased awareness of the construction industry's impact on the global climate combined with the current housing shortage in Sweden has contributed to an increasing ask for more wood in construction amongst stakeholders, municipalities and politicians. In order to meet Sweden's climate goals it is necessary that new materials, technologies and working methods continue to evolve. READ MORE

6. 5. Moisture risks with CLT-panels subjected to outdoor climate during construction : focus on mould and wetting processes

   University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och design

   Author : Johan Öberg; Erik Wiege; [2018]
   Keywords : moisture; CLT; massive wood; mould; WUFI; drying; construction; weather protection. best practice; fukt; KL-trä; massivt trä; mögel; WUFI; torkning; konstruktion; väderskydd; best practice;

   Abstract : When going through relevant research, moisture safety guidelines and talking to builders, moisture experts and architects it is clear - and not surprising - that water and wood make no easy combination. The experiences from building with cross laminated timber (CLT) differ from building sites and there are good and bad examples building without weather protection. READ MORE
