In this paper, a Finite-Element (FE) numerical investigation on timber-to-timber joints and
composite beams with inclined self-tapping screws (STSs) is presented. Based on past …

The research presented in this paper examines the performance of 3-ply cross-laminated
timber (CLT) panels connected with self-tapping screws (STS). Half-lap joints with STS …

This paper presents an experimental study to evaluate the use of spatially arranged self-
tapping screws (STS) as shear connections for cross-laminated timber panels. Specifically …

In the construction of modern multi-storey mass timber structures, self-tapping screws are the
preferred fasteners. In order the maximize the strength and stiffness of self-tapping screw …

Cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels, when used as shear walls or diaphragms, are
commonly connected with multiple (n) dowel-type fasteners in a row. For such connections …

Reliability and structural safety are key aspects in the design of timber structures. Notches at
the support considerably reduce the load-carrying capacity of glued laminated (glulam) …

Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a class of engineered wood product with the ability to act as
a flat plate floor system transferring loads in two-directions due to the orthogonally crossed …

An increasingly popular wood composite floor system consists of a Mass Timber Panel
(MTP) connected to a concrete slab or topping with mechanical connectors such as Self …

In the construction of modern multi-storey mass timber structures, a composite floor system
commonly specified by structural engineers is the timber–concrete composite (TCC) system …

Mass timber panels (MTPs) are a new generation of engineered wood panels that are
available in large plane dimensions to facilitate fast floor construction with the obvious …
