The present work investigates an innovative class of timber structure with potential applications in roofing, facade and bridge construction, called Timberfabric. The development of Timberfabric structures originates from the approach of harnessing the str ...
Automatic joinery has become a common technique for the jointing of beams in timber framing and roofing. It has revived traditional, integrated joints such as mortise and tenon connections. Similarly, but only recently, the automatic fabri- cation of tradi ...

Practical and material orientated academic research has become increasingly important for architectural practice, due to several factors. First, it contributes to contemporary concepts in architecture and improves their implementation. Today’s architects a ...
The objective of 1998 World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE'98) was to present the latest advances in the research, design and construction of engineered timber structures. The conference served as an international forum for researchers, designers, ...
In addition to glue-laminated timber, screw-laminated timber has increasingly been applied to rib shells. The ribs are made from laminated timber boards, which are joined together with the aid of pin-like fasteners such as screws or nails. The current rese ...

The Bureau d’Etudes Weinand worked on several innovative timber structures over the past three years. Those buildings apply cross laminated timber panels in an architecturally and structural innovative and creative manner. This presentation will point out ...
A methodology for modeling multi-layered structures is presented. The formulation is easily utilized in the framework of existing structural analysis programs to compute internal forces and the global and local deformations of multi-layered structural memb ...
