Abstract This work explores the design and digital fabrication of elastic timber gridshells integrating principal meshes. These networks guarantee, among others, planar faces discretization, node offset properties and orthogonal meetings of the components what simplifies the joining solution for what
Abstract Las estructuras laminares reticulares de madera son estructuras que, gracias a la eficiencia estructural que les confiere su forma curva consiguen una notable optimización de material, constituyendo una excelente respuesta a las exigencias cada vez mayores de una construcción
Abstract In the present work, single- and double-dowel joints following different geometric configurations are experimentally and numerically investigated to derive the splitting behaviour of beech wood (Fagus sylvatica L.), one of the most widespread hardwood species in Europe for structural purposes.
