    Abstract : Climate change and densification of cities are two major global challenges. Inthe building and construction industry, there are great expectations that tall timberbuildings will constitute one of the most sustainable solutions. First, verticalurban growth is energy and resource-efficient. READ MORE

  4. 17. Finger-Joints for Laminated Beams : Experimental and Numerical Studies of Mechanical Behaviour

    Author : Erik Serrano; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Finger-joints; Laminated timber; Testing; Nonlinear fracture mechanics; Finite Elemente Method; Lamininating effect;

    Abstract : The introduction of laminated timber, glulam being an example, allowed many of the disadvantages associated with solid wood to be overcome. The disadvantages in question are mainly those related to the size and shape limits of structural elements made of solid wood and to the large variability in such material properties of solid wood as strength and stiffness.

  5. 18. A product platform approach to support the design phase of industrialised house building : A framework conceptualisation when using mixed production strategies

    Author : Shamnath Thajudeen; Fredrik Elgh; Martin Lennartsson; Helena Lidelöw; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrialised house building; product platform; design platform; engineer-to-order; design for manufacturing and assembly; Industriellt husbyggande; produktplattform; designplattformar; engineer-to-order; design för tillverkning och montering;

    Abstract : The ability to offer unique solutions that meet customer demands has been considered a competitive advantage in the industrialised house building (IHB) industry. However, IHB companies are struggling due to varying customer needs and the simultaneous need to fulfil legal regulations, market demands, and production constraints. READ MORE

  6. 19. Stress-laminated-timber bridge decks subjected to ultimate loads

    Author : Kristoffer K J Ekholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ultimate-load tests; Stress-laminated timber; Timber bridges;

    Abstract : Stress-laminated-timber (SLT) bridge decks are a satisfactory alternative to conventional short-span bridges in terms of cost and performance. SLT decks are made from several deck laminations positioned side by side. READ MORE

  7. 20. In-plane tension behaviour of masonry

    Author : Miklos Molnar; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; restrained shrinkage; cracking; movement joints; Building construction; mortar joints; KstrMasonry; masonry; in-plane tension; Byggnadsteknik; murverk; sprickor; krympning; dilatationsfogar;

    Abstract : The main purpose of the present work is to increase knowledge of in-plane tension behav-iour of masonry and develop a model able to describe the impact of parameters influencing cracking caused by restrained shrinkage. In the process the mechanism of load transfer between units and mortar joints is described. READ MORE
