  3. 2. 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
