  • Cyclic performance of connections used in hybrid cross-laminated timber

    Creator:
    Mahdavifar, Vahid
    Abstract:
    One of the recent additions to the panoply of engineered wood products is cross-laminated timber (CLT). CLT is a prefabricated, large-scale, solid wood panel that consists of multiple layers of lumbers stacked together, with each layer arranged perpendicular to the next layer, glued with structural grade adhesives, and pressed. The...

  • In-plane Creep Behavior of Cross-laminated Timber and Mass Plywood Panels: A Methodology to Evaluate the Long-term Performance of Post-Tensioned Mass Timber Walls

    Creator:
    Longman, Ryan P.
    Abstract:
    Post-tensioned (PT) self-centering shear walls were designed to reduce structural damage from seismic activity. However, these lateral force resistant systems experience post-tension loss negatively affecting the re-centering capability due to delayed deformations experienced by engineered wood products over time. The long-term mechanical response of mass-timber panels to in-plane PT loads...

  • Strain distribution in OSB and GWB in wood frame shear walls

    Creator:
    Sinha, Arijit
    Abstract:
    The overall goal of this study was to gain an insight into the load sharing aspect between oriented strand board (OSB) and gypsum wall board (GWB) in shear wall assembly during racking load. More specifically the objectives of the study were to: (1) evaluate qualitatively the load sharing between OSB...

  • A Methodological Approach for Structural Health Monitoring of Mass-Timber Buildings Under Construction

    Creator:
    Baas, Esther J.
    Abstract:
    As mass-timber building construction rises around the globe, there exists the need to verify the long-term, in-situ behavior and performance of these structural systems. Structural health monitoring (SHM), generally defined as a damage detection strategy consisting of a network of sensors, a data acquisition system, and algorithms for data analysis,...

  • The impact of wood variability on the drying rate at different moisture content levels

    Creator:
    Berberović, Adin
    Abstract:
    Variability in wood properties causes boards within a stack of lumber to dry at different rates and reach different moisture content levels after drying is completed. The consequence is that the boards will have properties that differ from ones that were intended to be achieved by the drying process. The...

  • Wood materials and shearwalls of older light-frame residential structures

    Creator:
    Carroll, Cameron T.
    Abstract:
    Light-frame construction practices and materials have changed greatly over the past 100 years. Contemporary research has focused on modern construction; thus, we know a great deal about the behavior of modern lightframe buildings under lateral forces. However, there are many light-frame buildings that were built prior to the introduction of...

  • Characterization of Grape Cane Fibers as a Composite Reinforcement

    Creator:
    A. Bakar, Balkis F.
    Abstract:
    Using plant fibers as a potential renewable material to substitute for glass fibers in fiber-reinforced polymer composites has been growing since the late 1990s. Due to high demand, there has been a shift towards ‘green concept’ material in many applications. Numerous secondary plant fibers have been explored as a source...
