Factors affecting distribution of borate to protect building envelope components from biodegradation
https://tspace.library.utoronto.ca/bitstream/1807/... [Moisture/Durability] [Thesis/Dissertation] 2012 Md Nazmus Saadat Borate can be a potential candidate to protect building envelope components from biodegradation as it has low toxicity and can penetrate wood without pressure treatment, even in the refractory species commonly used in construction industries as structural components. In this research, wood moisture content, grain direction, formulation and species that affect the diffusion of borate in refractory species were investigated. Two highly concentrated formulations were applied and a novel approach (b... |

Wood Solutions Design and Build: Fire Design
http://www.hyne.com.au/documents/Feature%20Documen... [Fire Performance] [Report] WoodSolutions This Guide provides a summary of fire safety design process for a number of EXPAN-developed systems, including timber concrete composite (TCC) floors, timber cassette floors and post-tensioned timber beams without any fire-rated lining or additional protection. Design for structural stability in fire conditions is covered, as well as worked examples of the fire safety design procedures for each system. To get the best out of this Guide, it should be read in conjunction with AS 1720.4 and WoodSol... |

A Performance-based Approach for Fire Safety Engineering: a Comprehensive Engineering Risk Analysis Methodology, a Computer Model, and a Case Study
http://www.iafss.org/publications/fss/5/595/view/f... [Fire Performance] [Conference Paper] M. K. Mathews, D. M. Karydas, M. A. Delichatsios This paper presents a systematic approach for fire safety engineering, utilizing risk analysis principles. The described methodology is the foundation for a computer program developed for the performance-based fire risk assessment of buildings and the evaluation of alternative safety systems that may maintain the risk of building occupants and equipment, in respect to fire hazards, at tolerable levels. The computer program evaluates fire risk of a specified facility by automatically (1) generati... |

[Case Study/Projects] [Report] 2010 TRADA Technology There is nothing in the building regulations that prohibits high-rise timber buildings, although the practical limit (and current code limitation) for stud wall timber frame is seven storeys. The Stadthaus (German for townhouse) is – with eight floors of timber structure – the tallest habitable timber building in the world. And architects and structural engineers are already working on timber buildings that will be considerably taller. The building is insulated and airtight beyond UK requirement... |

Firestopping Test Witness Report

[Fire Performance] [Report] 2016 GHL Consultants Ltd Concerns have been raised that there may be specific considerations or methods required for firestopping of penetrations and joints in CLT. The objective of the testing was to confirm that CLT can be appropriately firestopped and to provide preliminary tested designs for use on early projects until such a time as the firestop industry develops a repertoire of standard listed designs for CLT, as is currently available for traditional materials such as concrete and steel floor and wall assemblies.... |

Resilient and Adaptive Design Using Wood
http://cwc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Resilienc... [Design/Architectural aspects] [Report] Canadian Wood Council Individuals in the design and construction community are increasingly choosing materials, design techniques and construction procedures that improve a structure’s ability to withstand and recover from extreme events such as intense rain, snow and wind, hurricanes, earthquakes and wildfire. In addition, buildings are increasingly designed to be more adaptable in order to accommodate future occupancies and user needs. As a result, specifying robust materials and design details, and constructing fl... |
