Characteristic withdrawal capacity and stiffness of threaded rods

Stamatopoulos, Haris; Malo, Kjell Arne (Conference object; Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)

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 ...

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 ...
