Damping in Timber Structures
Labonnote, Nathalie (Doctoral Theses at NTNU, 1503-8181; 2012:263, Doctoral thesis, 2012)Key point to development of environmentally friendly timber structures, appropriate to urban ways of living, is the development of high-rise timber buildings. Comfort properties are nowadays one of the main limitations to ... -
Effect of rod-to-grain angle on capacity and stiffness of axially and laterally loaded long threaded rods in timber joints
Cepelka, Martin; Malo, Kjell Arne; Stamatopoulos, Haris (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Long threaded rods have recently been widely used as a reinforcement of glued laminated timber in perpendicular to the grain direction. The recent research has thus focused mainly on the withdrawal properties of the threaded ... -
Effects of interconnections between timber floor elements: dynamic and static evaluations of structural scale tests
Nesheim, Sveinung Ørjan; Malo, Kjell Arne; Labonnote, Nathalie (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Long-span timber floor elements increase the flexibility of a building and exhibit a significant market potential. Timber floor elements are endeavouring to fulfil this potential, but building projects employing long-span ... -
Horisontal stabilisering av høye trebygg med skrudde CLT skiver
Nader, Shahin; Winnæss, Halvor Skalstad; Rist, Brage Skaare (Master thesis, 2019)Denne oppgaven har som mål å undersøke den mulige effekten krysslaminert limtre (CLT) kan ha når det er brukt som en stabiliserende komponent i en rammekonstruksjon. Oppgaven har som mål å finne ut av hvor godt skrudde CLT ... -
Long‑term behaviour of Norway spruce glulam loaded perpendicular to grain
Massaro, Francesco Mirko; Malo, Kjell Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The mechanical behaviour of timber loaded in compression perpendicular to grain is essential for a rational design of many timber structures. Structural components frequently exposed to such loading include studs on bottom ... -
Modelling the viscoelastic mechanosorptive behaviour of Norway spruce under long-term compression perpendicular to the grain
Massaro, Francesco Mirko; Malo, Kjell Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The effects of variation in humidity coupled with long-term loading give rise to dimensional changes and creep effects in wooden elements. Many wooden products such as cross-laminated timber (CLT) plates as well as many ... -
Moment resisting on-site splice of large glulam elements by use of mechanically coupled long threaded rods
Cepelka, Martin; Malo, Kjell Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Large spans of modern timber bridges can be achieved by use of glulam arches with network hanger configuration. Since transportation and production limit the length of timber elements, the glulam arches must be spliced on ... -
Moment resisting splice of timber beams using long threaded rods and grout-filled couplers – Experimental results and predictive models
Cepelka, Martin; Malo, Kjell Arne (Journal article, 2017)In order to achieve larger spans of timber arch bridges, glulam massive timber sections must be spliced on-site by moment resisting and rotationally stiff joints. In this paper, a novel timber splice connection utilizing ... -
Moment-resisting timber frames with semi-rigid connections
Vilguts, Aivars (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:88, Doctoral thesis, 2021) -
Network arch timber bridges with light timber deck on transverse crossbeams
Ostrycharczyk, Anna Weronika (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:318, Doctoral thesis, 2017)In modern bridge engineering, timber is more and more often considered as a choice for structural material. The advantages are evident: timber is environmentally friendly, easy to shape, thus it can meet various architectural ... -
On strength and stiffness of screwed-in threaded rods embedded in softwood
Stamatopoulos, Haris; Malo, Kjell Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Screwed-in threaded rods with wood screw threads feature high axial capacity and stiffness and can be used as fasteners in highly resistant and stiff timber connections. The purpose of the present paper is to review the ... -
Splicing of Large Glued Laminated Timber Elements by Use of Long Threaded Rods
Cepelka, Martin (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:320, Doctoral thesis, 2017) -
Stress-laminated timber decks in bridges: Friction between lamellas, butt joints and pre-stressing system
Massaro, Francesco Mirko; Malo, Kjell Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Stress-laminated timber (SLT) decks in bridges are popular structural systems in bridge engineering. SLT decks are made from parallel timber beams placed side by side and pre-stressed together by means of steel rods. SLT ... -
Stress-laminated timber decks in bridges: pre-stressing system, long-term effects and modelling
Massaro, Francesco Mirko (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:346, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Stress-laminated timber (SLT) decks are a popular solution for the superstructure of timber bridges. The aim of the research presented in this thesis was to increase the knowledge on the behaviour of SLT decks. The ... -
Wedge splitting test of wood for fracture parameters estimation of Norway Spruce
Ostapska-Luczkowska, Katarzyna; Malo, Kjell Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Crack evolution in wood from Norway Spruce during mode I wedge splitting tests was measured using a Digital Image Correlation (DIC) system. The resulting series of deformation fields were post-processed in order to obtain ... -
Withdrawal of pairs of threaded rods with small edge distances and spacings
Stamatopoulos, Haris; Malo, Kjell Arne (Journal article, 2018)An experimental investigation on withdrawal of pairs of screwed-in threaded rods embedded in glued-laminated timber elements is presented in this paper. Specimens with varying angles between the rod axis and the grain ... -
