    Keywords : Acceleration; comfort criteria; cross-laminated timber; factorial design; finite element analysis; natural frequency; vibrations; Acceleration; komfortkrav; korslimmat trä; faktorförsök; finita elementmetoden; naturlig egenfrekvens; vibrationer;

    Abstract : Today high-rise timber buildings are more popular than ever and designers all over the world have discovered the beneficial material properties of timber. In the middle of the 1990’s cross-laminated timber (CLT), was developed in Austria. CLT consists of laminated timber panels that are glued together to form a strong and flexible timber element.
