A numerical model is developed to analyse the thermo-mechanical fire behaviour of timber-to-timber dowelled and bolted connections in tension parallel to wood grain. The experimental results of two series of tests are used to validate the model based on three-dimensional (3D) finite element modelling. The thermo-mechanical performances of the connections are determined using two different meshing...
As timber is a combustible material, fire safety is a significant obstacle for the development of timber usage in buildings. Among the various structural components, the connections are often the weakest elements in a timber construction. In fire as well as in normal conditions, they govern the load-bearing capacity of the structure. However, a lack of knowledge is pointed out for the design of connections...
