Viability of Hybrid Poplar in ANSI Approved Cross-Laminated Timber Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The development of cross-laminated timber (CLT) technology has opened up new opportunities for low-density hardwood species, which have traditionally not been rated as construction-grade materials for structural engineering ...
Performance of Steel Energy Dissipators Connected to Cross-Laminated Timber Wall Panels Subjected to Tension and Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a new alternative energy dissipation solution to be used with cross-laminated timber (CLT) self-centering walls. CLT is a relatively new building product in North America and could potentially be used ...
Performance of Steel Energy Dissipators Connected to Cross-Laminated Timber Wall Panels Subjected to Tension and Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a new alternative energy dissipation solution to be used with cross-laminated timber (CLT) self-centering walls. CLT is a relatively new building product in North America and could potentially be used ...
Seismic Performance of High-Strength Steel RC Bridge Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a testing program developed to assess the performance of circular RC bridge columns constructed with ASTM A706 Grade 80 [550] high-strength steel (HSS) reinforcement. Two pairs of columns ...
Experimental Investigation and Modeling of Thermal Effects on a Typical Cross-Laminated Timber Bracket Shear Connection
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Connections in mass timber structural systems are critical for transferring lateral forces from mass timber elements such as shear walls and diaphragms. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a prominent mass timber material used ...
Fundamental Behavior of Timber Concrete-Composite Floors in Fire
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Timber-concrete composite (TCC) floors are becoming more commonly used in mass timber construction due to their increased stiffness and strength relative to nonconcrete composite timber floors. Current building codes do ...
Elevated Temperature Effects on Performance of a Cross-Laminated Timber Floor-to-Wall Bracket Connections
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Connections in mass timber structural systems transfer lateral forces from mass timber elements such as shear walls to floor diaphragms. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a prominent engineered mass timber material used to ...
Effect of Short-Term Simulated Rain Exposure on the Performance of Cross-Laminated Timber Angle Bracket Connections
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Connections play a vital role in the transfer of lateral forces and energy dissipation in cross-laminated timber (CLT) structural systems. However, moisture exposure (e.g., rain during or after construction) can affect the ...
Effect of Wetting and Redrying on Performance of Cross-Laminated Timber Angle Bracket Connection
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product offering several advantages for wood utilization in midrise and tall buildings. However, moisture intrusion poses significant risks since it can affect the durability ...
In-Plane Shear Cyclic Performance of Spline Cross-Laminated Timber-Concrete Composite Diaphragms
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Over the past decade, cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels have gained popularity worldwide. To achieve larger spans and to increase the resistance to diaphragm seismic and wind forces to be transferred through CLT floor ...
