DOWNLOAD EBOOKTimber construction is one of the most prevalent methods of constructing buildings in North America and an increasingly significant method of construction in Europe and the rest of the world. Timber Engineering deals not only with the structural aspects of timber construction, structural components, joints and systems based on solid timber and engineered wood products, but also material behaviour and properties on a wood element level. Produced by internationally renowned experts in the field, this book represents the state of the art in research on the understanding of the material behaviour of solid wood and engineered wood products. There is no comparable compendium currently available on the topic - the subjects represented include the most recent phenomena of timber engineering and the newest development of practice-related research. Grouped into three different sections, 'Basic properties of wood-based structural elements', 'Design aspects on timber structures' and 'Joints and structural assemblies', this book focuses on key issues in the understanding of: timber as a modern engineered construction material with controlled and documented properties the background for design of structural systems based on timber and engineered wood products the background for structural design of joints in structural timber systems Furthermore, this invaluable book contains advanced teaching material for all technical schools and universities involved in timber engineering. It also provides an essential resource for timber engineering students and researchers, as well as practicing structural and civil engineers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSystems in timber engineering. Use of Cross laminated timber with two concrete examples" is my Final Project of Grade. This project summarizes the most common timber systems used over time. It studies thoroughly the wood product "Cross laminated timber", which is a relatively new wood product that was first introduced in the 1990's in Austria and has gained popularity in residential and non-residential buildings in many European countries and around the world in the recent past. Two specific projects of two existing single-family houses are designed with CLT solid wood panels. This paper is divided into three parts: In the first part an overview of the construction systems in timber construction is given. The systems are introduced, their characteristics and loadbearing performance are explained in a superficial way. The second part deals with Cross laminated timber. In this chapter, an extensive study of this wood system is carried out. X-LAM, its abbreviation, is introduced in many general aspects as a product. All the specific and technic information which is shown is, in particular, form the Austrian firm "KLH Massivholz Gmbh", which I had the pleasure and honour to visit. And in the final third part, two projects of two single-family houses are shown. Starting from a basic plan of the house, which have been obtained from two architects with which I'm truly grateful for their help, X-LAM system is used to design the house. Floor plans, sections, details and concrete component connections are designed.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTogether with masonry construction, timber construction is usually one of the first building exercises encountered by the student in his or her training. This volume begins by presenting the building material timber in all of its facets and explaining the fundamental principles of timber construction. It then goes on to describe the most important building components and their constructive possibilities, specifically as they pertain to building with timber. Subjects: Timber as building material, Timber preservation, Systems for building with timber, Building components from foundation to roof.
