In recent years, multiple historic and contemporary timber buildings have been instrumented
with sensors to monitor the performance of wood products and novel engineering systems …

Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is becoming increasingly adopted into North American
construction, yet little is known about the impacts of environmental exposure (eg, to rain …

There are currently no standards regulating water management for mass timber elements
during construction, little knowledge of impacts of moisture exposure (wetting and drying …

Exposure to moisture and wetting is a concern in mass timber construction and service.
Understanding the moisture conditions and the drying response of mass timber during …

Exposure to wetting is a concern during mass timber construction and in service. Mass
timber roof assemblies are susceptible to moisture intrusion and sustained loading as …

For the development of sustainable building solutions, research on innovative structures
figures a key contribution. In Switzerland, recent developments pursue investigations on …

Glulam timber structural linear elements often show low span-to-depth ratios. Moreover,
timber is intrinsically orthotropic with very low shear moduli. These two circumstances justify …

In this study, the moisture contents of four Hanoks have been monitored and the results were
analyzed. Murujeong and Ongojae were built by traditional construction method and …

Preservation of traditional wooden buildings is important to extend their life and to adapt
them to modern society. Wood can be subject to decay, cracking, and discoloration when …

In this study, the deformation analysis technique by synthesizing digital image to analyze the
macroscopic deformation trend of Hanok has been proposed. By using this proposed …
