Cross-Laminated Timber for Single-Family Residential Construction: Comparative Cost Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cross-laminated timber (CLT) has emerged in recent years to become a widely recognized mass timber product for large-scale wood construction projects. The advantage of large CLT buildings has been recognized by investors ...
Cyclic Response of Precast, Hollow Bridge Columns with Postpour Section and Socket Connection
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Accelerated bridge construction (ABC) has been used extensively to achieve rapid construction, to reduce traffic congestion and environmental impacts, and to ensure reliable quality control. Precast columns are typically ...
Cost-Effectiveness of Mass Timber Beam–Column Gravity Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The cost of mass timber buildings is a major point of interest to building developers and architects because it often dictates the fate of proposed mass timber projects. Cost estimation for mass timber construction has ...
Theoretical and Experimental Studies of the Internal Force Transfer Mechanism of Perfobond Rib Shear Connector Group
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Partially Earth-Anchored Cable Bridge: Ultralong-Span System Suitable for Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Plastic Cables
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As a new high-strength material, carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) cable provided an opportunity for bridge structures to achieve span limits that were not possible or economical in the past. Based on existing conceptual ...
Performance of a Woodframe Structure during Full-Scale Shake-Table Tests: Drift, Damage, and Effect of Partition Wall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The dynamic performance of a woodframe structure is examined through the qualitative correlation between the transient interstory drift and the observed damage following a series of full-scale shake-table tests. The structure ...
Performance-Based Seismic Design of Wood Frame Buildings Using a Probabilistic System Identification Concept
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Performance-based seismic design (PBSD) of wood frame structures has been only preliminarily investigated by a handful of researchers around the world and is currently under development in the United States as well as other ...
Energy Consumption Analysis of Multistory Cross-Laminated Timber Residential Buildings: A Comparative Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cross laminated timber (CLT) is a new panelized mass timber product that is suitable for building tall wood buildings (higher than eight stories) because of its structural robustness and superior fire resistance as compared ...
Cyclic Behavior of Central Columns in Subway Stations Subjected to Highly Variable Axial Compression Ratio
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The failure mode of concrete columns in subway stations during seismic events can be affected by the dynamic fluctuation of the axial forces. This study conducted quasi-static tests with bidirectional loading on three ...
Seismic Performance Factors for Cross-Laminated Timber Shear Wall Systems in the United States
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Seismic force resisting systems based on cross-laminated timber (CLT) shear walls have garnered considerable attention for in mid-rise construction around the world. The purpose of this study was to determine seismic ...
