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. Axially loaded screw joints in wooden structures exposed to fire : Fire tests in furnace and numerical calculations in TASEF of different screw mounting variations
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : To achieve sufficient stability of a structure in a fire scenario, a thorough design of joints in wooden structures are as important as the design of the construction itself. As an earlier study points out, there are no existing design method available to determine the load capacity of an axially loaded screw joint in wooden structures, which complicate the process of a thorough design of the joint in a fire scenario.
