FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF WOODEN BEHAVIOR OF COMPRESSIVE STRAIN INCLINED TO THE GRAIN (PART 4): NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF DEFORMATION BEHAVIOR AT CLT-GLULAM JOINTS WITH CONSIDERATION ON INCLINATION OF ANNUAL RINGS

Abstract

Recently, application of Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) for medium and high-rise wooden structure is spreading rapidly even in Japan. It has been proposed not only CLT panel structures but also structures combined CLT panel with frame members which is used wood-based materials such as Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) or Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) and so on. In a case of CLT is used as wall column and Glulam is used as beam, it is important that appropriate evaluation of deformation property between CLT and Glulam.
