The construction of timber buildings has increased in recent years, thanks to the excellent
properties of the material. To achieve improved behaviour in terms of mechanical properties …

Engineered wood products (EWPs) are being increasingly used as construction materials.
EWPs are currently being made using synthetic adhesives or metal fasteners, which lead to …

This study presents the feasibility of constructing moment joints using birch plywood plates
and glulam beams. Beam-beam joints consisting of birch plywood gussets and glulam …

Abstract Purpose of Review The main goal of this study was to review the latest

The design of timber connections is of vital importance in timber structures. Bonded
connections exhibit the advantages of lower cost, higher load-bearing capacity, and higher …

The use of timber in construction in medium–high rise construction has increased in recent
years largely due to the significant innovation in engineered wood products and connection …

Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is one of the most sustainable, robust, and green building
materials nowadays and is normally used for walls, floors, or roofs. The number of studies on …

Today, advanced production technologies using computer numerically controlled (CNC)
tools are a key enabler of innovation in the mass timber industry. In addition, enhancement …

The construction of log-wall generally involves the assembly of glulam members with tongue
and groove connections. However, significant relative slip was observed between glulam …

When wood is used as a stressed component of building materials, the parts most prone to
failure are the upper and lower surfaces which can be called the weak structure. In a …
