1. 1. FE-modelling of glulam connection in a pre-tensioned glulam truss : Detailed Finite element modelling of the connection between primary beam and compression stud in a sub-tensioned glulam roof truss

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Edward Sebastian Swaretz; [2022]
   Keywords : Glulam; sub-tensioned roof truss; connection; instability; Abaqus Standard; Finite element method;

   Abstract : After the collapse of the roof structure in Tarfalahallen 2020, great attention has been focused on instability of sub-tensioned glulam roof trusses. Investigations were launched to find the reason for the collapse and the cause was instability in the roof truss that supported the roof. READ MORE

3. 2. System:Forest

   University essay from KTH/Arkitektur

   Author : Samira Hedberg Ibáñez; [2022]
   Keywords : Kronby; Forest; tree; Wood; Design for Deconstruction; Deconstruction; Dissassemble; Reassemble; Architecture; System; construction; Iso timber; CLT; Gluelam; Cabin; House; Gazebo; Complementary building;

   Abstract : What I have tried to do in this project is to come up with a system of building that gives the building and the materials within, a chance for a longer life. A system that does not only make it easier to change the layout on the inside, but also makes it easier to disassemble the entire structure with minimal damage to the materials and the surroundings.

4. 3. Technical Optimization of a Long Span Beam made of Glulam Elements

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Mario Bulgarini; [2021]
   Keywords : Glulam structures; long span ceilings; optimal arrangement; technical considerations; self weight minimum.;

   Abstract : Timber constructions have during the past two or three decades become more andmore common, mostly due to the easy prefabrication and the cheap, sustainablematerial. For long-span applications it is vital to find design solutions that optimizethe structure from the point of view of material consumption, number of theconnections, structural reliability etc. READ MORE

5. 4. Instability of tie rod trusses of glulam

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Adam Wisam Kafaji; [2021]
   Keywords : Tie rod truss; instability; hall building; glulam; Underspänd takstol; instabilitet; hallbyggnad; limträ;

   Abstract : Many buildings today primarily serve the purpose of being envelopes that separate theindoor climate from the outdoors, for a large open area. Examples of these buildings arehall buildings of different sorts. READ MORE

6. 5. 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
