11. Communicating long-span timber structures with 3D computer visualization
Sammanfattning : One of the reasons for the low amount of timber in construction is a general lack of knowledge about timber engineering and how timber can be used to its full advantage. In this thesis the focus is 3D computer visualisation (3D VIZ) of non-residential long-span timber structures, used for storage, industry and sports where 3D VIZ is defined as a process where a 3D-model is enhanced with environmental information e.

12. Moisture Induced Stress Perpendicular to Grain in Timber Structures
Sammanfattning : Timber structures and wooden element are in general affected by moisture and moisture variation in different ways. Their hygroscopic properties result in adsorption of water when wetted and in desorption when dried. LÄS MER
13. Architectural aspects of massive timber : structural form and systems
Sammanfattning : The hypothesis of this thesis is that there are rational, technical and architectural gains to be made from interactively developed architectural and structural utilisation of massive timber plates. The aim is to study and describe architectural features of structural applications of massive timber and ways to utilise and develop timber-based plates in building applications by combining an architectural and a structural engineering perspective.

14. Timber-concrete hybrid structural systems : Examples, long and short-term dynamic monitoring, and numerical analysis
Sammanfattning : Timber-concrete hybrid buildings are an innovative solution to increase the amount of timber materials in modern buildings. Due to its lower impact on the environment than materials like steel and concrete, the demand for timber products is rising as the construction industry aims to decrease its environmental footprint.

15. Steel-to-timber dowel joints : Influence of moisture induced stresses
Sammanfattning : Joints are critical parts of timber structures, transmitting static and dynamic forces between structural members. The ultimate behavior of a loaded building depends strongly on the structural configuration and the capacity of the joints. LÄS MER
