  • Effective Bonding Parameters for Hybrid Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT)

    Creator:
    Larkin, Blake
    Abstract:
    Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a massive engineered wood product made of orthogonally bonded layers of solid-sawn lumber, and is intended for roof, floor, or wall applications. Although it was developed in Europe in the early 90s, CLT is relatively new to North America. CLT products must be certified for structural...

  • Wood-adhesive bondline analyses with micro x-ray computed tomography

    Creator:
    Paris, Jesse Loren
    Abstract:
    There is no doubt that adhesive penetration plays an important role in wood bondline joint performance and durability; yet, to date there is no direct experimental evidence linking penetration depth with bond performance. This is, in part, because adhesive penetration is commonly assessed with various 2D microscopy techniques that are...

  • Investigation of Styrene-Free Unsaturated Polyester Resins for Fiber-Reinforced Composites

    Creator:
    Wu, Yili
    Abstract:
    Most of existing commercial unsaturated polyester (UPE) resins are typically composed of a UPE and a high amount of highly volatile, flammable, and toxic styrene. The emission of hazardous styrene in the handling of the UPE resins and the preparation and use of fiber-reinforced UPE composites poses severe hazards to...
