An experimental and numerical study of moisture flow and moisture-induced strain in fast-grown Sitka spruce
(Departamento de Ingeniería en Maderas de la Universidad del Bio-Bio en Concepción, Chile, 2019)
The use of fast-grown timber in the manufacture of engineered wood products is increasing;
however, the fast growth rate results in a low-density timber that is susceptible to significant swelling
and shrinkage deformations ...
The mechano-sorptive creep behaviour of basalt FRP reinforced timber elements in a variable climate
(Elsevier, 2019-09-25)
The use of Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) reinforcement has been shown to improve the short-term flexural behaviour of timber elements. This is particularly important when reinforced elements are subjected to a variable ...
