  1. 16. Sodium Model for Production Planning in a Paper Mill

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Isak Lindfors; [2022]
    Keywords : Paper Mill; Production Planning; Modelling; Liquor; Sodium;

    Abstract : In today’s pulp and paper industry the Kraft process is the most common method for pulp production. This method uses sodium based chemicals (white liquor) in the cooking process to remove lignin from the wood chips and create pulp. READ MORE

  2. 17. 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 naturresurser

    Author : Henrik Pettersson; Emma Wiklund; [2022]
    Keywords : Fire; wood; screw joints; strength; temperature; TASEF; Brand; trä; skruvförband; bärförmåga; temperatur; TASEF;

    Abstract : 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.

  3. 18. Moment-resisting connections for glulam using birch plywood : An experimental study on both mechanical and adhesive connections

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Jonatan Ringaby; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of mechanical and adhesively bonded connections in timber structures with gusset plates made of birch plywood, as a preliminary study for potential future use in long-span timber structures which could reduce the environmental impact of the building sector by substituting steel with wood products in moment-resisting connections. Birch plywood was chosen for this study due to its high bending strength in comparison to plywood made of softwoods and its availability on the market. READ MORE

  4. 19. Evaluation of a testing method for shear stiffness properties for cross laminated timber

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

    Author : Calle Lind; [2022]
    Keywords : CLT; cross laminated timber; EN 16351; four-point bending; rolling shear modulus; FE-modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Cross laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product that was first developed in the 1990s. Since then it has grown in popularity thanks to its many advantages such as: low environment impact, high degree of prefabrication and low weight. As the material is relatively new the standardization process is still in the early stages. READ MORE

  5. 20. Embedment Behavior of Steel Dowel in Timber: Influence of Moisture Content, Assembly History, and Artificial Cracks : An experimental and numerical study of embedment strength and stiffness of steel dowel in timber with different wood moisture content and assembly history

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Zijad Shehadeh; [2022]
    Keywords : Embedment strength; Embedment stiffness; Moisture content; Assembly history; Artificial cracks; Steel Dowel;

    Abstract : Timber is becoming an increasingly popular construction material particularly due to its great environmental properties. Just alone around Linnaeus University in Växjö city, dozens of multistory buildings in timber have risen. READ MORE
