This study focuses on the utilization of non-prismatic LVL members of wood species Sengon
(Paraserianthes falcataria) for three-hinged gable frame structures. This wood species …

The management of axial forces is an important issue when a joining method that takes into
account the axial forces generated by tightening bolts is applied to the bolted joints of a …

Metal washers are widely used in joints of timber structures. Thick washers embed fully into
timber, whereas thin washers partially embed into timber due to their bending deformation …

Assessing the residual performance of timber joints affected by decay is important for
seismic diagnosis and reinforcement of timber structures. This study introduces a method to …

The pretensioning force in bolted joints enhances the lateral strength of the connections,
and causes the embedment of metal washers into wood. Despite the significance of …

Disertační práce je zaměřena na popis tradičních tesařských spojů a možnosti výpočtu jejich
mechanického chování a únosnosti při statickém zatížení. Návrh tesařských spojů v …

The pretension force for bolted timber joints increases the frictional resistance between the
clamping wood and steel plate. Increasing the frictional resistance improves joint stiffness …

Ahşap doğal bir yapı malzemesi olarak tarihin ilk anlarından günümüze kadar inşa etmek
amacıyla çeşitli şekillerde kullanılmıştır. Ahşabı inşaat tarihçesinde ayrı bir yere koyan …

This study deals with analysis of structures using mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian description.
Apart from generally used Lagrangian description which uses initial configuration as …

Knee braced steel frame is a new kind of energy dissipating frame system which combines
excellent ductility and lateral stiffness. In this framing system, a special form of diagonal …
