1. 1. Composite timber structures – Ribbed plate design : Evaluation of existing and development of new design methods

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Cristoffer Mård; [2022]
   Keywords : Ribbed plates; CLT; gamma-method; Timoshenko-method; shear analogy-method; FE-models; RFEM; Abaqus;

   Abstract : Ribbed plates comprising cross-laminated timber slab, CLT, with glulam beams allow for increased span length compared to pure CLT slabs. At the moment the Eurocodes do not provide any recommendations to design a CLT plate or a ribbed plate. There are handbooks for designing ribbed plates. READ MORE

3. 2. CHARACTERISATION OF CROSS LAMINATED TIMBER PROPERTIES

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

   Author : Emil Nilsson; [2021]
   Keywords : CLT; cross laminated timber; in-plane loading; out-of-plane loading; beam; rolling shear modulus; experimental tests; FE-modelling; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This project concerns an analysis of a hitherto untested method for determining the modulus of elasticity (MoE) and shear modulus parallel to grain, as well as the rolling shear modulus of cross laminated timber (CLT) through 3-point bending tests. A review of analytical models and methods is included, followed by an evaluation of the effect of the annual ring orientation and shear stress distribution at shear loading of individual board cross-sections.

4. 3. Timber Concrete Composite floors with Cross Laminated Timber - Structural behavior & Design

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

   Author : Albin Forsberg; Filip Farbäck; [2020]
   Keywords : timber concrete composite; TCC; floors; cross-laminated timber; CLT; structural behavior; design methods; Gamma method; Equivalent gamma method; Extended gamma method; RFEM; first natural frequency; serviceability limit state; ultimate limit state; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : På grund av den ökade miljö- och klimatmedvetenheten har övergången till förnybara material påskyndats, och detsamma gäller intresset för träbyggande. Med att bygga högt i trä kommer dock ett flertal konstruktionsmässiga utmaningar, där en av utmaningarna är dynamik på grund av träets låga egenvikt jämfört med andra mer konventionella byggnadsmaterial.

5. 4. Numerical Analysis of the Two Dimensional Wave Equation : Using Weighted Finite Differences for Homogeneous and Hetrogeneous Media

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

   Author : Christian Böhme; Anton Holmberg; Martin Nilsson Lind; [2020]
   Keywords : hetrogeneous media; variable wave speed; wave equation; finite differences; gamma method; multigrid; weighted central difference; numerical analysis; agmg; gamma discretisation; two dimensional wave equation;

   Abstract : This thesis discusses properties arising when finite differences are implemented forsolving the two dimensional wave equation on media with various properties. Both homogeneous and heterogeneous surfaces are considered. READ MORE

6. 5. Behaviour of cross laminated timber elements with openings at out-of-plane loading conditions

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

   Author : Christopher Hast; Daniel Fatemi; [2020]
   Keywords : CLT; Cross laminated timber; Grillage model; Gamma method; Bernoulli-Euler beam theory; Timoshenko beam theory; Finite element method; FEM; Composite; Abaqus; Technology and Engineering; Science General;

   Abstract : The use of cross laminated timber (CLT) is expanding, its use is relatively new and universal design standards are lacking. One situation for which no universal design standard exists is that of a CLT plate element with an opening. A grillage method has been proposed as a convenient method to design such plate elements.
