The connectors for the CLT shear wall with drift pin joint were suggested. The wall composed of five layers Japanese cedar CLT, steel connectors and drift pins (diameter d = 16mm). The horizontal shear performances of the walls were evaluated by static e...
In order to consider the seismic design method, the shaking table tests and static lateral load tests were conducted to the modelized CLT panel construction. As a result, it was clarified that the shear displacement and joint deformation under the seismi...
This study introduces a new resilient slip friction joint for framed hybrid structures. The proposed connection has a self-centring behaviour in addition to damping characteristic. This innovative Resilient Slip Friction (RSF) joint is replaced with the conventional beam to column connections. The RSF joint provides energy dissipation...
A reduction coefficient is applied in usual design of multiple dowels type connections. The numbers of stiffeners in row is one of important factor to decide this coefficient. CLT drift pinned joint showed small orthotropy against in plane tensile load. Tensile tests of multiple drift pins joints were performed to evaluate the effect of array...
With the increased use of timber and glued timber members in dynamic loading situations, updated testing and design specifications for timber products in Europe are needed. In connection with the development of a 140 m high timber wind turbine tower being developed by the company Ed. Züblin GmbH in Germany, fatigue testing...
