Evaluation of the structural behaviour of beam-beam connection systems using compressed wood dowels and plates
Mehra, Sameer; O’Ceallaigh, Conan; Hamid - Lakzaeian, Fatemeh; Guan, Zhongwei; Sotayo, Adeayo; Harte, Annette M. (NUI Galway, 2018-08-20)To support the transition to a bio-based society, it is preferable to substitute metallic fasteners and adhesives in timber construction with an eco-friendly alternative. Recent studies have identified compressed wood ... -
Experimental investigation of the serviceability behaviour of a cross laminated timber floor
Uí Chúláin, Caitríona; Harte, Annette M. (NUI Galway, 2018-08-29)European timber design standards set out basic serviceability limit design criteria for single span, simply supported floors, but the rotational stiffness of the fixing system and two-way support possible with modern solid ... -
Influence of connection systems on serviceability response of CLT timber flooring
Uí Chúláin, Caitríona; Sikora, Karol; Harte, Annette M. (TU Verlag Wien, 2016-08-22)In this paper finite element analysis of a five layer cross-laminated timber (CLT) rectangular floor is presented. The model was developed using 3D shell elements with linear elastic orthotropic material properties. Support ...
