Recent advancements in engineering and materials science have led to a worldwide resurgence in the use of engineered-wood products, particularly glued laminated timber (glulam). Glulam Materials and Structures: Durability and Sustainability in Construction offers a specialized exploration of the latest innovations relating to this environmentally friendly technology, emphasizing its durability, performance, and expanding use in construction.

The book analyzes the materials' response to extreme environments, focusing on critical factors like high-temperature exposure, freeze-thaw cycles, and corrosive atmospheres, providing new perspectives into how glulam performs under these challenging conditions. It also covers cutting-edge advances in glulam beam designs, prestressed joints, and glulam-steel composite members, diving into their mechanical properties and environmental impact. The integration of sophisticated testing methods and equipment, simulation techniques, and performance prediction theories adds significant value to the discussions, making this volume an indispensable resource for readers looking to optimize engineered wood products’ potential in both new and existing structures.

Drawing from the authors’ extensive research, this work also delivers detailed case studies that demonstrate how glulam has been applied in real-world projects. The practical insights in its versatility and effectiveness across various contexts enhance the contents’ overall relevance for audiences in both academia and industry.

  • Consolidates the latest theoretical and practical findings, providing readers with up-to-date coverage of current trends and knowledge in glulam technology
  • Addresses critical information gaps by offering meticulous analysis of the durability of glulam under extreme conditions, enhancing understanding of its performance in different environments
  • Explores innovative designs by introducing new types of glulam beams, connections, and glulam-steel composite structures, highlighting how these contribute to improvements in structural integrity and resilience.
  • Includes a number of case studies that illustrate the practical applications of glulam, showcasing successful implementations that address contemporary construction challenges
