Influence of Wooden Board Strength Class on the Performance of Cross-laminated Timber Plates Investigated by Means of Full-field Deformation Measurements
Although cross-laminated timber (CLT) plates are increasingly used in high-performance building structures, a tailored composition of them or, at least, a performance-based classification scheme is not available. Especially, the influence of the quality of the ‘raw’ material (wooden boards) on the load carrying capacity of CLT elements is hardly investigated yet. For this reason, within this work,
