Timber-steel hybrid beams have been proposed, tested and analyzed for their use in multi-storey buildings. After the first concepts and tests were presented in the WCTE 2014, two whole testing series are finished and their results globally presented and analyzed. The beams fulfilled all the expectations and therefore can be presented as a reliable possibility for future proposals of timber-based frame multi-storey buildings. The present paper presents a summary of the part regarding hybrid beams inside the research project “Timber based mixed systems for dense construction in urban areas” carried out by the Institute of Structural Design and Timber Engineering of the Vienna University of Technology.
