Eucalyptus globulus Labill stands out as one of the hardwood species produced in Europe
with prominent mechanical properties, which is undergoing a growing interest in extending …

The finite element method was used to investigate the influence of size and position of
cylindrical knots on load capacity considering the elastic–plastic constitutive law of Scots …

Out-of-grade pine timber is an abundant material resource that is underutilised because its
mechanical properties are not well understood. Increasing trends toward shorter rotation …

The objective of this study is to evaluate the structural behaviour of novel timber-to-timber
panels (TTPs), which are free of adhesives or steel connectors, to be used in floors …

The stress distribution of timber tenoned scarf joint subjected to tension force was analysed
by means of finite element method. This analysis was compared and validated with results …

The double-step joint is among the most frequently used layouts, within carpentry joints, for
transmitting higher forces that would allow a single notch. They are especially effective in …

The bending behavior of T‐section beams composed of a glulam web and an upper cross‐
laminated timber flange was studied. The influence of two fundamental factors on the …

The use of alternative lignocellulosic raw materials for development of new engineering
composite materials is researched. The study is based on the Lata's palm “Bactris …

A stochastic model of sawn timber structural elements of Argentinean Eucalyptus grandis is
applied to the study of two eigenproblems. One is the free vibrations problem which, after …

Timber-to-timber panels (TTPs) are adhesive-and steel-free structural components formed
by carpentry joints of Scots pine to be used as floors. Figure 1 shows a schematic on the …
