1. Medieval Timber Roof Structures: Conceptual methods for investigation and evaluation of structural behaviour, with the horizontal thrust problem as an application
Sammanfattning : The medieval timber roof structures hidden in the attics of many Swedish churches represent the advanced building technology of the time. They are an important cultural heritage, their being bearers of information from a period regarding which other direct sources of information are scarce. LÄS MER
2. Historiska träbärverk : Strukturmekaniska metoder och visualisering
Sammanfattning : In designing and erecting buildings in historical times, creating the loadcarrying structure was perhaps the greatest challenge with which the architect and the builder were faced. We encounter structures in which there was a strive to reach vertical heights in the pillars and walls and to extend the horizontal span of the beams and vaults that were built. LÄS MER
3. The Structure of Chinese Timber Architecture Twelfth century design standards and construction principles
Sammanfattning : This thesis examines the building standards and construction principles prescribed and used in the construction of state buildings of the Song Dynasty (960 - 1279), China, from the viewpoint of architectural design. It aims to answer three fundamental questions: (1) What measuring system was used in the carpentry design and construction? (2) What building scales and proportions were prescribed for and used in state buildings of the time? (3) What were the interrelations of the structural patterns and roof types, and what were their relationships to the building scales and proportions? The thesis begins by providing detailed explanations of the highly refined and unique Song period modular system which governed not only the sizes of each individual elements, but also the dimensions of structural grids and the proportion of entire building.

4. Molecular recognition in the solid state : crystal structure studies of selected inclusion compounds of host molecules with roof-shaped skeleton
Sammanfattning : This survey presents the results of single-crystal X-ray diffraction investigations of nine selected organic heteromolecular complexes in terms of the molecular recognition concept. The host molecules of the studied inclusion compounds have the 9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene moiety in common, to which various sensor groups possessing both proton donor and acceptor abilities are attached.

5. Probabilistic System Effects in Timber Structures
Sammanfattning : The main purpose of the performed research presented in this thesis is to increase the understanding of the effect of variability of strength properties on the reliability of timber structural systems. Compared to other structural materials such as steel and concrete, structural timber has a considerably higher variability of strength both within and between members. LÄS MER
