  3. 2. Performance of joints for glued laminated timber exposed to the ISO fire temperature curve

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Jesus Gil; [2021]
    Keywords : Glued laminated Timber; Structural fire engineering; Fire performance; standard ISO fire curve; Joints; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As society becomes more ecologically conscious there is a push toward the use of materials with a smaller environmental burden, one of these materials is glulam (GLT), which has gained a lot of traction in recent years not only for ecological reasons but for its ease in manufacture, transport, noise dampening, etc. The focus of this project was to evaluate the influence of different joint configurations on the fire performance of glulam members.
