  1. 11. FE modeling of glulam beams with mechanical slotted-in steel plate connections.

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Musaab Mahjoub; [2021]
    Keywords : Timber joints; Slotted-in steel plate connections; Python scripting; FEM; Abaqus.;

    Abstract : The mechanical behavior of timber beams with a slotted-in steel plate connection is studied by creating a numerical model that is able to simulate the global bending behavior, the global load carrying capacity and the nonlinear plastic fastener force distribution in the connection. Experimental results from Material Testing Institute (MPA), University of Stuttgart were used to verify the simulation results from this study. READ MORE

  3. 12. Building extension through additional CLT storeys

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Charalampos Livas; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the last decade, the use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels as load bearing elements have become a usual solution for buildings and structures with an upward trend internationally. This is because CLT has brilliant physical and mechanical properties and it is also an eco-friendly and renewable material. READ MORE

  4. 13. Structural Assessment of the Glulam Arches at Stockholm Central Station

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Anders Naumburg; Kasper Krönlein; [2020]
    Keywords : Wood; Glulam; Glulam-arch; Hetzer system; Töreboda system; AB Fribärande träkonstruktioner; Curved I glulam cross-sections;

    Abstract : The purpose of this master’s thesis was to investigate if suspension of heavy objectsis possible in the glulam arches at Stockholm Central Station. The main goal was todetermine the arches’ load carrying capacity’s utility ratio, in order to give knowledgeif additional loading can be added. READ MORE

  5. 14. Ledtider i sågverksindustrin Lead times in the sawmill industry – an analysis of flows and processes : en analys av flöden och processer

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Economics

    Author : Kristin Olovsson; [2020]
    Keywords : ekonomisk produktionskvantitet; ledtidskartläggning; processkartläggning; produktionsplanering; stopptidsanalys; sågverk; EPQ; lead time mapping; optimal batch size; production planning; sawmill; stop time analysis; value flow mapping;

    Abstract : Den skogliga råvaran är en viktig del i ett mer hållbart samhälle, samt för Sveriges fortsatta välfärd. De sågade produkterna som vidareförädlas till limträbjälkar och korslimmade-väggelement, är viktiga delar för ett ökat byggande i trä. READ MORE

  6. 15. Parametric design and optimization of steel and timber truss structures : Development of a workflow for design and optimization processes in Grasshopper 3D environment

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : FILMON WELDEGIORGIS; ANUP RAJ DHUNGANA; [2020]
    Keywords : Parametric design; Optimization; Parametric workflow; Steel; Timber; Truss; Grasshopper 3D; Karamba 3D; Galapagos; GH Python; Glulam; Finite Element Analysis;

    Abstract : The demand for complex structures and the urge to perform more detailed structural analyses in an early stage of the project design phase has increased the use of parametric design in the construction sector, especially among architects and structural engineers. Also, an increasing demand for sustainable structures is creating pressure on engineers and architects to design optimized structures that consume as little resources as possible. READ MORE
