The thermomechanical behavior of members and connections plays a crucial role in the fire
safety of timber construction. In this study, a unique constitutive model, Wood ST, combining …

The fire resistance of connection plays a crucial role in the fire performance of timber
structures. During the past three decades, massive real-scale fire tests were performed on …

This paper presents a summary of experimental results from various studies conducted
these twenty last years on the behaviour of steel-to-timber or timber-to-timber connections …

This paper presents the results of the fire resistance of traditional timber mortise-tenon joints
with service damage. Static loading and fire resistance tests were conducted with full scale …

In this study, an analytical approach is developed to estimate the fire resistance of glulam
bolted connections under coupled shear force and bending moment. This approach …

There is a lack of knowledge on the structural reliability of dowel-type connections exposed
to fire. The objective of this paper is to propose a model for the structural reliability analysis …

Mass timber is increasing in popularity all over the world due to the advantages such as
shorter erection time and lower carbon footprint. However, unlike other commonly used …

Since 1999, a long research program has been underway in France with the aim of better
understanding the mechanical behavior of timber connections in fire situations. This work …

Recent experimental evidence has shown that wood–steel–wood dowel-type connections
exhibit a semi-rigid behaviour even after 90 min of fire exposure. Because a semi-rigid …

This paper presents the results of twenty‐one fire tests on unprotected steel‐to‐timber
connections with dowel‐type fasteners and one or two slotted‐in steel plates. The …
