The mechanical properties of fibre-managed Eucalyptus nitens (E. nitens) cross-laminated timber (CLT) have previously been extensively studied, proving the material to be structurally safe and reliable. However, the vibration performance of CLT manufactu...

In this study, the preliminary serviceability performance of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels constructed from fibre-managed Eucalyptus nitens (E. nitens) was investigated via bending and vibration tests. Linear four-point bending tests were performed...

Tip loading is a common strategy to increase the propulsive efficiency of propellers. Solutions such as contracted and tip-loaded (CLT) and ?New generation? CLT propellers exploit the presence of an endplate (?true? or as the result of a dedicated modifi...

The calculation method for buckling capacity of cross-laminated timber (CLT) under axial load with one-way members has been investigated and incorporated into design codes worldwide. However, the load may only be applied to a part of the CLT members. In ...

CLT panels have been investigated for reinforcement of existing masonry-infilled RC framed buildings through the increase of the overall lateral stiffness of the structure, thus reducing the story drift demand. The contribution of CLT panels depends on t...

Cross-laminated timber (CLT) slabs in residential buildings need additional weight, e.g., in the form of screeds or gravel layers, to fulfill the criterion for the highest impact-sound class. The additional mass is, however, not exploited for the load be...

Simplified seismic design procedures mostly recommend the adoption of rigid floor diaphragms when forming a building?s lateral force-resisting structural system. While rigid behavior is compatible with many reinforced concrete or composite steel-concrete...
