  2. 1. Bonding veneers using only heat and pressure : focus on bending and shear strength

    Author : Carmen Cristescu; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; self-bonding; auto-adhesion; LVL; beech; Fagus Sylvatica; high-temperature; pressure; Wood Technology; Träteknik;

    Abstract : A compact laminated board can be obtained by pressing layers of veneers with no other material or substance placed between them. The process does not require the use of steam pretreatment, surface activation methods, a gastight press, friction or adhesives. It strictly involves the heat and the pressure induced by the press in the veneers. READ MORE

  4. 2. Structural Analysis of Deep Composite Box-Type Components with application to a proprietary stabilising timber wall element

    Author : Seyed Rasoul Atashipour; Per Johan Gustafsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

    Abstract : The stabilising wall element of the Trä8-system is a deep box-type beam/column element which is made of different types of timber composites including framing members of gluedlaminated timber (glulam) and sheathings of laminated veneer lumber (LVL). This element is used as a ―shear wall‖ in multi-storey buildings up to four storeys. READ MORE

  5. 3. Adhesive Joints in Timber Engineering. Modelling and Testing of Fracture Properties
