1. 1. 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. 2. Stability analysis of a large span timber dome

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

   Author : Markus Herrström; Gustav Fredriksson; [2017]
   Keywords : Timber; Glulam; Dome; Instability; Buckling; FEM; Non-Linear; Imperfection; Creep; Settlements; Geodesic; Kiewitt; Abaqus; Stability; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to study the feasibility of building a timber dome with a span of 300 metres, concerning elastic stability. The load-bearing members were modelled with the properties of glued laminated timber GL30c with the dimensions 0.8×1.6 m2. READ MORE

4. 3. Combined glued laminated timber using hardwood and softwood lamellas

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Aishwarya Muraleedharan; Stefan Markus Reiterer; [2016]
   Keywords : Glued-laminated-timber; GLT; hardwood; oak; combined glulam;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the behaviour of glued laminated timber combined with hardwood and softwood lamallae is investigated. The influence of hardwood in the tension and compression zone, in terms of strength and stiffness is evaluated. READ MORE

5. 4. Modelling of strengthened connections for large span truss structures

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

   Author : Peter Kobel; [2011]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Because of its large ratio between strength and weight timber is a material very suitable for large span structures. For large spans of more than about 30 m, usually truss structures are adopted. READ MORE

6. 5. Numerical Analysis of Compression Perpendicular to the Grain in Glulam Beams With and Without Reinforcement

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik

   Author : Jimmy Persson; [2011]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : In Sweden there has recently been a change in the code from the former BFS2010:2 BKR 13 to Eurocode 5. This shift has led to changes when calculating the design capacity for all materials including wood. One of the parameters that were changed was the strength of wood perpendicular to the grain.
