6. Consideration of the non-linear behaviour of joints for efficient design of complex timber structures
Sammanfattning : The re-emergence of timber as a construction material, facilitated by the development of modern engineered wood products, has enabled the creation of modern and complex timber structures. A detailed description of the load-displacement curves of timber joints is required. LÄS MER
7. Durability and Long-term Performance of Adhesively Bonded FRP/steel Joints
Sammanfattning : Fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites offer excellent properties, such as high specific strength and stiffness, corrosion resistance and light weight. Over the past four decades, FRPs have been increasingly used for strengthening and repair of bridge structures, and more recently, in the manufacture of whole/hybrid FRP bridges. LÄS MER
8. Thermal cracking of young concrete : partial coefficients, restraint effects and influence of casting joints
Sammanfattning : Cracks can occur due to temperature induced movements during the hardening phase of concrete. Thermal cracks are not decisive for the load-bearing capacity but cause costs for repair and may reduce the life of the structure. The risk of cracking can be judged through safety values, (partial coefficients) given in building codes. LÄS MER
9. Finger-Joints for Laminated Beams : Experimental and Numerical Studies of Mechanical Behaviour
Sammanfattning : The introduction of laminated timber, glulam being an example, allowed many of the disadvantages associated with solid wood to be overcome. The disadvantages in question are mainly those related to the size and shape limits of structural elements made of solid wood and to the large variability in such material properties of solid wood as strength and stiffness.

10. Structural-acoustic vibrations in wooden assemblies : Experimental modal analysis and finite element modelling
Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis concerns flanking transmission in light weight, wooden multi-storey buildings within the low frequency, primarily 20-120 Hz. The overall aim is to investigate how the finite element method can contribute in the design phase to evaluate different junctions regarding flanking transmission. LÄS MER
