Cross (CLT) and diagonal (DLT) laminated timber as innovative ma-terial for beam elements

Viac o knihe

Focusing on advancements in engineered wood, the book explores cross laminated timber (CLT) and its innovative variant, diagonal oriented timber (DLT). It details the optimization of CLT beams for enhanced performance, particularly under tensile stresses. The study includes experimental testing and finite element analysis to evaluate the load-carrying behavior of both CLT and DLT beams in edgewise bending, offering insights into their structural applications and benefits in construction.
