Abstract Experimental results of eight short-term tests of the HSB® (Habitat System Beton) timber–concrete connection system are presented. The specimens were compressive double shear tested according to EN 26891:1991, placing two connectors per shear plane. The ultimate shear force and

Abstract The fracture toughness of thermally modified beech (Fagus sylvatica L) and ash (Fraxinus excelsior L) wood under Mode I loading was quantified using Compact Tension (CT) specimens, loaded under steady-state crack propagation conditions. The influence of three heat-treatment levels

Abstract The paper explores, experimentally and theoretically, the possibility of producing a novel cladding sandwich panel comprised of a low-density wood fiber (WF) core and faces made of wood-based panels. Tests on small specimens, using physical and optical devices, were

Abstract The term clear wood corresponds with the macroscopic scale, where the orthotropic elastic model is commonly used. This model is defined by a compliance matrix composed of nine parameters. The current experimental standard methods for obtaining these parameters are
