DOI: 10.1016/j.engstruct.2021.112867
Abstract: Abstract Introducing openings in joists of flooring systems is usually necessary to pass through building services without increasing the floor-to-floor height. The openings reduce the stiffness and limits the ultimate load-carrying capacity of the timber… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/polym14194222
Abstract: The strengthening of timber beams with carbon-fibre-reinforced polymers (CFRP) has been widely used in the last decades to enhance the behaviour of historical or new timber structures, usually for bending. While considerable improvement in capacity… read more here.
