Fire Resistance Testing of a Timber-Glass Composite Beam

Behavior of Composite Timber-Concrete Beam with CFRP Reinforcement

Timber - structural glass composite systems in earthquake environment

Structural glass combined with a timber frame is a composite system that has a predisposition for good behavior during an earthquake, it is energy-efficient and cost-effective, aesthetically acceptable and has a good load-bearing characteristics. In recent years, several research projects of composite systems timber structural glass are in progress and according to the present results basic gui...

Experimental Study on the Fire Resistance Performance of Prestressed Composite Beam with Corrugated Web under Standard Fire with Loading Condition

In this study, fire resistance tests were performed on a conventional slim floor beam and a prestressed composite beam with corrugated webs, which is suitable for a long-span structure with a reduction in story height by utilizing the prestress and accordion effect. In the fire test program, the ISO 834 standard fire curve was adopted. Key test variables were the effect of prestress, shape of c...

Behaviour of a Timber-Concrete Composite Beam with Glued Connection at Strength Limit State

The paper reports the results of a collapse test performed on a 6 m span timber-concrete composite beam with glued re-bar connection. The beam was first ramp loaded to failure, then some push-out tests were performed on specimens cut from the end of the beam in order to fully characterise the connection. During the tests all relevant quantities such as deflections, slips and strains were monito...
