    The local bearing capacity perpendicular to grain of structural timber elements

    No full text
    The accuracy and reliability of empirical models for the local bearing capacity perpendicular to grain of timber beams is questionable as it is not based on any fundamental principal. This study shows that a physically based stress dispersion model can successfully be applied for a wide range of practical design situations. The credibility of this model is based on experiments, FEM and optical techniques used to assess and quantify the strength affecting parameters. This model is a potential candidate to be incorporated in future structural timber design standards

    Innovaties in houten vloeren

    No full text
    Onbekend maakt onbemind, en dat geldt zeker ook voor houten vloeren. De houten vloer is terug van weggeweest. Door onderzoek en innovaties van de afgelopen jaren bieden houten vloeren minstens hetzelfde comfort als betonnen varianten. Ze hebben een lagere massa, zijn milieuvriendelijker, zijn eenvoudig aanpasbaar aan veranderende situaties en de integratie van alle installatievoorzieningen is simpel en goedkoop. In dit artikel worden enkele vloersystemen besproken waarbij ingegaan wordt op de mogelijkheden van houten vloeren in het ontwerp

    Wood modification developments

    The last decades developments in the arena of wood modification have accelerated considerably. This acceleration is due to a number of circumstances of which the environmental awareness, the increasing demand for high and constant quality and the increasing prices and availability of tropical hardwood species. This has led to the up-scaling and the market introduction of a number of wood modification techniques. Modification can be done without added chemicals by heat treatment only, or with the aid of added chemicals. Examples of both principles are given. Several products of thermally modified wood are already available on the market. More recently the first chemical modification processes have reached (or are about to reach) market introduction. Chemical modification makes wood with superior qualities of tailor-made products possible. The variability in degree of modification within wood is discussed with acetylated wood as an example. Different treatabilities in different wood species also reflect in acetic anhydride impregnation. However, in contrast to waterborne systems this does not result in sharp fronts but in more gradual profiles. The gas diffusion of the chemical into the wood plays an important role in this phenomenon. In the further process developments these effects need to be taken into account
