Abstract: Abstract The structural behaviour of both glued laminated timber (GL) and laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is well described by the strength effectiveness ratio f/ρ (resistance over unit weight) and the deformation effectiveness ratio E/ρ (elastic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.soildyn.2018.10.019
Abstract: Abstract This paper presents a seismic displacement-based design method for post-tensioned timber (Pres-Lam) framed buildings equipped with passive energy dissipation systems. In displacement-based design a target drift is specified, then the corresponding design forces are… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fbuil.2019.00104
Abstract: This paper describes a seismic design procedure for low-damage buildings composed by post-tensioned timber framed structures coupled with hysteretic dissipative bracing systems. The main goal of the design procedure is preventing or limiting earthquake induced… read more here.
