Timber Structures - Handbook 1

Size: 7.6 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: Leonardo da Vinci Pilot Project | Year: 2008 | pages: 254

“Handbook 1“ gives a brief overview of the history of timber structures in Chapter 1. Chapter 2 deals with the properties of wood and Chapters 3 informs about facts concerning structural timber – the basic product for engineering purposes. In order to obtain timber components of large dimensions, wooden parts need to be bonded by means of adhesives (Chapter 4). This enables the production of the most important timber engineering products, glulam (Chapter 5) and wood based panels (Chapter 6). Chapters 7-10 summarize the basics of timber structure design. Chapter 7 gives an overview about general issues and special facts concerning the verification process of timber structures. The main topic of Chapter 8 is the behaviour of timber structures in the serviceability limit state (SLS), while the following two chapters deal with aspects of the ultimate limit state (ULS) for cross-sections and members (Chapter 9) and joints (Chapter 10). Chapters 11-15 contain basics and useful information about planar (Chapter 11) and spatial (Chapters 12) timber structures, timber house framing (Chapter 13), bracings (Chapter 14) and timber bridges (Chapter 15). In the subsequent chapters the important questions about durability (Chapter 16), fire resistance (Chapter 17) and the properties of timber in aggressive environments (Chapter 18) are described and discussed.
