Bolted glulam beam-column connections are often subjected to combined shear force and
bending moment induced by the semi-rigid nature of such connections. This paper …

This paper summarises experimental investigations conducted on a novel connector
assembly consisting of hollow steel tubes placed inside cross-laminated timber panels. The …

An experimental and analytical study on rotational behavior of glulam beam-column moment
connections with self-drilling dowels (SDDs) is conducted. Connection properties including …

Abstract Reduced Beam Section (RBS) have been introduced, with reference to steel
structure, after the 1994 Northridge, CA Earthquake, due to the brittle failure of beam flange …

With the development of wooden structures and buildings, there is a need to research
physical and numerical tests of wood-based structures. The presented research is focused …

In this study, partially threaded self-tapping screws have been used as reinforcement on
timber portal frames to enhance mechanical performance of dowel-type connections …

In this paper, a new bolted beam-column connection comprising of top-and-seat steel
angles and bolts was used in timber frames and its influence on structural behaviour was …

The mechanical behavior of the bolted joints with slotted-in steel plate plays an important
role in maintaining the stability of single-layer timber reticulated shell, yet methods to …

The glulam bolted joint with prestressed steel strips was proposed and investigated
systematically. Experimental study was conducted considering the variation of pre-strain of …

Initially, timber was considered only as an easily accessible and processable material in
nature; however, its excellent properties have since become better understood. During the …
