BridgeDesignConnection systemDuring the last years, timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures have been extensively used in Europe both in new and existing buildings. Generally speaking, a composite structure combines the advantages of both mate...
The supporting system of the main bearing elements is made of the laminated timber in the system of arch with three joints; the bridge slab is designed as continuous slab, made of nine equal fields; each pair is made as composite timber-concrete beam, where the road slab is made of ...
Timber bridges may also have concrete supports. The art of building timber bridges was highly developed in ancient Rome. In the chronicles of the llth and 12th centuries there is frequent mention of bridges built in Russia across large rivers. There are different timber-bridge systems in the ...
the addition of a second deck for traffic resulted in the construction of a deck truss, giving the bridge its current ratio of girder depth to span of 1:120. Concretebridges Reinforced concrete Early bridges During the 19th century, low-cost production of iron and steel, when added to the ...
Some examples are timber-concrete composite structures [[15], [16], [17]], timber–glass bonded structures [18]. However, as structural adhesives are sensitive to temperatures and high relative humidity [19,20], in the design phase it is essential to consider not only the mechanical stresses...
The paper presents the conceptual design of the footbridge made of laminated wood. The supporting system of the main bearing elements is made of the laminated wood in the system of arch with three joints and the bridge deck is made of the composite timber concrete structure system. The load ...
Timber-concrete composite technology, chiefly used for reinforced flooring but can also form wall panels, is essentially a prefabricated concrete slab connected to a timber panel or beam. The materials work together to optimize structural performance. The concrete resists compression while the wood, wit...
