2. 1. Modelling the Variability of Bending Strength in Structural Timber - Length and Load Configuration Effects

   Author : Tord Isaksson; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; code; reliability-based design; Weibull; test standard; load configuration effect; length effect; weak section; machine grading; visual grading; variability; Structural timber; bending strength; simulation; monte carlo simulation.; Building construction; Byggnadsteknik;

   Abstract : The load carrying capacity of a beam of structural timber is dependent both on the span of the beam and the type of loading. The longer the beam and the more uniform the moment distribution, the lower the load carrying capacity. This phenomenon is due to the variability of material properties within a piece of timber.

4. 2. The modified Iosipescu shear test for orthotropic materials

   Author : Niklas Melin; Jonas Neumeister; Gradin Per; KTH; []
   Keywords : composite; modified Iosipescu tet; shear test; strain field uniformity; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : AbstractThe Iosipescu shear test, also known as asymmetric four point bending of a V-notched beam,is frequently used for measuring in-plane shear properties of composites. The ASTM standard(ASTM D-5379-05) regulates how the test is to be performed. READ MORE

5. 3. The strength of glulam beams with holes - A probabilistic fracture mechanics method and experimental tests

   Author : Henrik Danielsson; Byggnadsmekanik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fracture mechanics; Weibull; design; test; strength; stress; glulam; hole; probabilistic fracture mechanics.;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with experimental tests and methods for strength analysis of glulam beams with holes. Test results and methods for strength analysis available in literature are compiled and discussed. The methods considered comprise both code strength design methods and more general methods for strength analysis. READ MORE

6. 4. Basic Testing and Strength Design of Corrugated Board and Containers

   Author : Tomas Nordstrand; Byggnadsmekanik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Material technology; Materiallära; materialteknik; Produktteknik allmän ; Technology of other products; corrugation; compression; collapse; buckling; bending; box;

   Abstract : Packaging serves a lot of purposes, and would be hard to do without. Packaging protects the goods during transport, saves costs, informs about the product, and extends its durability. A transport package is required to be strong and lightweight in order to be cost effective. READ MORE

7. 5. Bracing of steel bridges during construction; theory, full-scale tests and simulations

   Author : Hassan Mehri; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bracing; steel-concrete composite; steel; bridge; test; construction; laboratory; experiment; experimental; theory;

   Abstract : A number of steel bridges have suffered lateral-torsional failure during their construction due to their lacking adequate lateral and/or rotational stiffness. In most cases, slight bracing can be of great benefit to the main girders involved through their controlling out-of-plane deformations and enabling the resistance that is needed to be achieved.
