    • Evaluation of the mechanical behaviour of novel latticed LVL-webbed joists 

      Harte, Annette M.; Baylor, Gordon; O’Ceallaigh, Conan (Bentham Open, 2019-01-23)
      The mechanical behaviour of a novel I-joist having a latticed Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) web is investigated. A total of 30 joists with C24 Grade flanges and latticed LVL webs were manufactured and tested to failure. ...
    • Web geometry optimisation of novel latticed LVL-webbed timber I-joists 

      Harte, Annette M.; Baylor, Gordon; O'Ceallaigh, Conan (Elsevier, 2022-12-02)
      This paper presents the finite element analysis of novel composite timber I-joists with curved latticed webs. The flanges of the joists were made from Norway Spruce whilst the curved latticed webs were made from laminated ...
