Discussion of “<i>Limit State Probabilities for Wood Structural Members</i>” by Erik M. Hendrickson, Bruce Ellingwood, and Joseph Murphy (January, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 1)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Experimental Characterization of Monotonic and Cyclic Loading Responses of CLT Panel-To-Foundation Angle Bracket Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cross laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood plate product suitable for the construction of shear walls in low-rise and medium-rise residential and commercial buildings. CLT shear walls are attached to foundations ...
Control of Building Sway and Force Flows Using Ultralightweight Slabs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Design analyses are presented to demonstrate the technical advantages of substituting ultralightweight slab materials like cross-laminated-timber (CLT) for reinforced concrete (RC) floors and roofs of low-rise and high-rise ...
Load and Resistance Factor Design of Timber Joints: International Practice and Future Direction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: International practice for load and resistance factor design (LRFD) of mechanical structural timber joints is reviewed. Attention is on design provisions in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia, those being locations ...
Discussion of “<i>Planning Detention Storage for Stormwater Management</i>” by Vasudevan G. Loganathan, Jacques W. Delleur, and Rafael I. Segarra (October 1985, Vol. 111, No. 4)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Structural Behavior of Wood Light-Frame Wall Segments Subjected to In-Plane and Out-of-Plane Forces
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The tests were performed on 2.44 m by 2.44 m light-frame wall segments, having oriented strand-board sheathing nailed to sawn lumber framing, to determine their structural response to in-plane and out-of-plane forces applied ...
Connection System of Massive Timber Elements Used in Horizontal Slabs of Hybrid Tall Buildings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper discusses connections between Cross-Laminated-Timber (CLT) floor slabs and steel framework of hybrid tall buildings. Using the example of a 24-story building analysis, it is shown that such connections can be ...
Failure In-the-Row Model for Bolted Timber Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Forces in heavy timber members are often transferred at connections into steel gusset plates via laterally loaded bolts, which are arranged in rows parallel to member axes. Elastic analysis predicts an unequal sharing of ...
Discussion of “<i>Dynamic Characteristics of Wood and Gypsum Diaphragms</i>” by Robert H. Falk and Rank Y. Itani (June, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 6)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Finite-Element Modeling and Parametric Study of Glulam Beam-and-Deck Floors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Small-amplitude cyclic vertical motions of timber floors perceived as unacceptable by humans are commonly the result of walking impact forces. Contemporary vibration serviceability guidelines mainly require prediction of ...
