3. 7. Fire Resistance Test of Cross Laminated Timber Joints

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

   Author : Oliver Cato; [2022]
   Keywords : CLT; Joints; Fire; resistance; Korslaminerat; trä; skarvar; Brand; motstånd;

   Abstract : The increased popularity of timber buildings has heightened the demand for more knowledge on how tomake these buildings safer. In many cases, parts of wooden constructions are prebuilt in factories that later are delivered to the building site. Transportation by road limits the sizes of the parts. READ MORE

4. 8. Utilisation of hardwood in cross-laminated timber - A numerical study on vibrations in floors

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

   Author : Johannes Jonasson; Olle Karlsson; [2022]
   Keywords : hardwood; birch; beech; clt; cross-laminated timber; vibrations; floors; footfall; accelerations; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product consisting of several layers of laminations bonded together with adhesives. In contrast to heavier construction materials, timber and other lightweight building materials are more prone to serviceability issues due to vibrations. READ MORE

5. 9. Lateral Stabilization of CLT Buildings - Modelling approaches

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

   Author : Lina Holmqvist; Sanna Källman Gleisner; [2022]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an environmentally positive building material with high stiffness and load-bearing capacity. In combination with a low self-weight, CLT is a beneficial material to use for the load-bearing structure of high-rise buildings. READ MORE

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

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)
