Martínez-Criado C, Aira JR. (2021) CLT-concrete composite slab optimization. International Conference on Structural Integrity (ICSI), Funchal, Madeira, Portugal.

Abstract The CLT-concrete slab solution contributes to notably improve several aspects where CLT shows some disadvantages related to its low stiffness or its low natural vibration frequency. This can affect the user’s comfort or even the structural integrity against resonance

Abstract Timber elastic gridshells represent a promising solution for medium and long span lightweight roofs featuring free or modular geometries. This technique enables the construction of large simple or double curved shells by bending standard timber elements on site, incorporating
