This paper deals with the possibilities of using coupled timber-concrete structures by means a glued coupling bar. The described process of static reinforcement is particularly suitable for reconstruction of historic timber ceilings and places where it is necessary to prevent damage to non-supporting structures...
This paper describes the design of a system to monitor floor vibrations in an office building and an analysis of several months worth of collected data. Floors of modern office buildings are prone to occupant-induced vibrations. The contributing factors ...
Composite, timber-concrete slabs as structural floor systems for office and residential buildings, offer several technical advantages over traditional, exclusively timber floors. The connection between timber and concrete in current systems made of spruc...
Timber-concrete-composite (TCC) systems, commonly with timber at the bottom and concrete at the top, are efficient solutions for floors because of their advantages compared to pure timber or pure concrete slabs, one of the advantages being better fire resistance...
