1. Novel steel hinge connection for pedestrian timber bridges : Novel steel hinge connection for pedestrian timber bridges
University essay from KTH/ByggnadsmaterialAbstract : This study focuses on exploring a novel timber-to-timber joint using a steel hinge connection (in this work also referred to as door-hinge joint) for pedestrian timber bridges. To conduct the cross-section design of the structural bridge members, a numerical model was developed to determine the internal forces. READ MORE

2. Embedment Behavior of Steel Dowel in Timber Loaded Perpendicular to the Grain : Influence of Assembly History in Combination with Moisture Change and Cyclic Loading
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)Abstract : The embedment behavior of dowels in timber structures, as an essential parameter in the design of connections, is the subject of this thesis. There are numerous advantages using timber structures, including sustainability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. READ MORE

3. Embedment Behavior of Steel Dowel in Timber: Influence of Moisture Content, Assembly History, and Artificial Cracks : An experimental and numerical study of embedment strength and stiffness of steel dowel in timber with different wood moisture content and assembly history
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)Abstract : Timber is becoming an increasingly popular construction material particularly due to its great environmental properties. Just alone around Linnaeus University in Växjö city, dozens of multistory buildings in timber have risen. READ MORE

4. Design of column bases concerning bending and shear nibs
University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och designAbstract : The purpose of the thesis is to find out how to design column bases with conventional methods presented by European standards and codes, but above all from the Steel Construction Institute's handbook on structural joints and compare it with finite element analyses. However, today there are no good instructions for how column bases exposed to multiaxial bending should be designed, where assumptions based on structural mechanics also was compared with computer tools.

5. FE modeling of glulam beams with mechanical slotted-in steel plate connections.
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)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
