Summary
To enable high strength connections of glulam elements a new method of reinforcing the glulam with steel sheets has been developed. The steel sheets are installed ‘ab initio’ during the production process of the glulam. In the conducted series of test suitable adhesives and treatments of the steel surface have been selected and evaluated...
