Timber Structures (BYG310)

Structural systems for buildings. Advanced knowledge on wood material and wood-based materials (solid timber, CLT (cross laminated timber), DLT/NLT (doweled laminated timber/nailed laminated timber), LVL (Laminated veneer lumber), etc.). Design of timber structures. Design of joints and connections. Introduction to European design rules for timber structures, Eurocode 5. Glulam and arch structures. Stability and bracing systems. Basic ultimate and serviceability state requirements.

Through the course, the students will acquire general competence in designing the structure for a standard building or bridge according to background and basis of Design Rules. They will acquire knowledge about load-carrying timber structural systems, including connections. Students will be able to verify timber structures with respect to European Design Rules (Eurocode 5).

There must be an early dialogue between the course supervisor, the student union representative and the students. The purpose is feedback from the students for changes and adjustments in the course for the current semester.In addition, a digital subject evaluation must be carried out at least every three years. Its purpose is to gather the students experiences with the course.
