This adhesive, based on castor oil, presents ecological and economical advantages in relation of traditionally used. The appropriate parameters for gluing were determined and the compatibility between this adhesive and treatment with the waterbome preservative of chromated copper arsenate (CCA-C) were evaluated through shear tests and tensions tests (perpendicular and parallel to the grain), using the species Pinus caribea hondurensis. With these parameters, were made 12 beams of GLULAM; using the species Pinus caribea hondurensis and Eucaliptus grandis. The structural performance of the beams of GLULAM was evaluated through static bending tests. The results obtained allow concluding the good performance of the adhesive polyurethane based on castor oil, for use in wood not preserved and preserved with CCA type-C. The gluing pressures indicated are 0,8 MPa for non-treated wood, and 1,6 MPa for treated wood. The gluing pressure recommended for finger-joints is 9 MPa, for treated wood or not.

Ce travail de recherche vise à évaluer le comportement au fluage de nouvelles structures composites en associant trois matériaux: le bois, le béton fibré ultra-haute performance (BFUP) et des armatures polymères renforcées de fibres de carbone (PRFC). Le but de la conception d'une telle section hybride est de faire usage des meilleures caractéristiques de chaque matériau afin d'augmenter sa capacité portante à l'ultime et/ou en service. Aussi, d'un point de vue du comportement mécanique, cette solution de renforcement vise à apprécier et hiérarchiser l'intérêt d'une telle solution liée aux effets déférés, particulièrement au fluage. La première étape consiste à mener une analyse expérimentale sur le comportement en statique de poutres hétérogènes bois-BFUP. Elle est exécutée afin de mieux comprendre le mécanisme d'endommagement ainsi que la performance pour définir le comportement au fluage. Pour cela, une campagne expérimentale en flexion quatre points portant sur trois poutres, dont une poutre témoin, a été conduite sous sollicitation statique. Les résultats obtenus confirment que les poutres hétérogènes Bois-BFUP apportent une optimisation de capacité portante ainsi que de la rigidité. Les poutres hybrides ont permis d'obtenir le même mode de rupture en flexion et la première rupture s'est produite dans la partie comprimée de BFUP supérieur. La seconde partie de la recherche est consacrée à l'analyse du comportement au fluage de poutres hétérogènes bois-BFUP nécessaire pour prédire les déformations à long terme dans des structures composites hybrides. Dans cette étude, deux types d'essai ont été réalisés : essai en environnement contrôlé et essai en environnement non contrôlé (extérieur). En environnement contrôlé les essais fluage ont commencé sous une charge constante de 24 kN dans le laboratoire avec des températures de 20±5 °C et une humidité relative entre 40% et 60%. Ces conditions climatiques peuvent être considérées comme un environnement de classe 1, conformément à l'Eurocode 5. Les résultats ont montré que la flèche de fluage de la poutre renforcée augmente peu tout au long de l'essai. A l'inverse de ces résultats, l'essai de fluage en environnement variable à l'extérieur du laboratoire, qui peut être considéré comme environnement de classe 3 suivant l'Eurocode 5, montre que les effets différés du bois et du béton jouent un rôle très important dans l'évolution de la flèche finale / This dissertation aims to evaluate the creep behaviour of a new composite structure combined three materials: the wood, the ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) and the polymer fibre reinforced carbon (CFRP) according to their advantages and performances. The conception of such hybrid section is to use the best characteristics of each material to increase its bearing capacity in the ultimate and / or in service. Furthermore, from the point of view of design, this strengthening solution is to assess and prioritize the interests to reduce the deformation caused by the delayed effects, particularly caused by creep. The first part investigated an experimental analysis of the static behaviour of the wood-UHPFRC beam, and should be performed to understand the mechanism of the hybrid beam as well as the performance which are the directions to identify the creep behaviour. A four-points bending test setup on three beams, one beam witness, was conducted under static loading. The results confirm that heterogeneous Timber-UHPFRC beams provide an optimization of bearing capacity and stiffness. The hybrid beams have produced the same flexural mode of failure and the first crack occurred in the upper part of compressed UHPFRC. The second part of the research is devoted to the analysis of creep behaviour of heterogeneous wood beams UHPC necessary to predict long-term deformations in composite structures. In this study, two types of test setups were conducted: test in a sheltered and outdoor environment. In the sheltered environment, the creep test began under a constant load of 24 kN in the laboratory with temperatures of 20 ± 5 °C and a relative humidity between 40% and 60%. These climatic conditions can be considered as the service class 1, according to Eurocode 5. The results showed that the creep deflection of the reinforced beam gradually increases throughout the test. Unlike these results, the creep test in a variable environment outside the laboratory, which can be considered Class Service 3 to Eurocode 5, shows that the effect of time dependency behaviour of wood and concrete plays a very important role in the evolution of the creep deflection of the hybrid beams

The subject of the project is new building of indoor swimming pool with gym with dimensions of 63,2x32,4 m and guest capacity of approximately 250 000 people per year. The project is located in Valašské Klobouky (parc.č. 2210/1, 2200/11, 2203, 2194, 2210 / 3, 2210/35 in the cadastral area of Valašské Klobouky) owned by the city Valašské Klobouky. In the neighborhood, there is took place building of primary schools, kindergartens, health centers and boarding house for seniors. Location of buildings on the property (built-up area of approximately 1934 square meters) is based on the requirement to continoue to the existing complex of objects with maximaly utilization of space and orientation to the quarters. The building is divided into two parts by volume. From an operational point of view is divided into three functionally different parts ie. A cafe, gym and indoor pool. The parts are divided by materials. Café, entry and operational facility is from supporting skeleton system, which is equipped with a facade of cladding panels in a uniform grid in combination with glass facade. The supporting part of the hall with pools and gym is consisted of laminated wooden trusses, which hold up the roof and cladding with sheeting of TiZN. Southwest facade of pool hall, toward to the health center, is fully glazed. Glazed stripes are also between individual segments of glulam wooden trusses of hall and ensures even natural lighting of the hall.

The aim for this thesis is to investigate and explore how to build more sustainably with wood. The understanding of climate change has in this day and age become a social and development issue. This also applies for the construction sector, where it turns out that the manufacturing process accounts for a large portion of the climate footprint and much depending on the selection of material. The need to build more climate smart has come down to the choice of environmentally friendly materials, a result of the existing demand for wood that continues to increase in Sweden.  Wood as a material has many benefits but the demand in question creates doubts about sustainability, with a goal to use wood as a material responsibly and without straining the forests’ resources all too much. To build sustainably means also to strive for the longevity of wood buildings. A combination of these aspects provide for a better understanding and contribution for more sustainable buildings. The objective of this thesis is to portray the challenges that may arise during the lifespan of a wood building in addition to explore methods that can strengthen a more resourceful consumption of forest products to meet the needs of the market, but also for a more viable forestry than we have today.  Results show that every way to build has their problems but wooden buildings have the requirement to be particularly attentive when it comes to four problem areas and those are moisture, fire, wind and acoustics. Where the technical solutions for the first three are essential for the durability of a wood building. To benefit of properties of wood, an active forestry is a must but for the sake of the climate, is new and more adapted forestry methods needed. In a similar way is progressive and different ways of working or building with wood a matter of interest, with the example of glulam and cross laminated wood or as an alternative, Japanese wood joinery / Arbetets målsättning är att undersöka hur man kan bygga mer hållbart med trä. I dag är klimatfrågan en drivande fråga för samhället och utvecklingen. Det gäller även för byggbranschen, där det visar sig att tillverkningsprocessen står för en stor del av klimatavtrycket och mycket är beroende på val av material. Med behovet att bygga mer klimatsmart blir val av miljövänliga material essentiell, och på grund av detta fortsätter efterfrågan på trä att öka i Sverige.  Träet har många fördelar men efterfrågan skapar frågor om hållbarheten, att kunna nyttja trä som material utan att belasta skogens resurser allt för mycket. Men att bygga hållbart innebär dessutom att sträva mot byggnader som kan stå under en lång tid. Kombinationen av dessa aspekter ger bättre förutsättningar för ett hållbart byggande. Detta arbete ska därför kartlägga de utmaningar som kan uppstå för en träbyggnads livslängd, och därutöver undersöka metoder som inte tär på skogens resurser för att möta behoven som finns på trä, för ett mer hållbart skogsbruk än vad man har idag.  Resultat visar att alla sätt att bygga på har sina problem men för träbyggnader krävs det att vara extra varsam när det kommer till fyra problemområden och de är fukt, brand, vind samt akustik. Där tekniska lösningar för tre förstnämnda är väsentliga för en träbyggnads beständighet. För att använda träets egenskaper måste man ha ett aktivt skogsbruk men för klimatets skull behövs nya och mer anpassade avverkningsmetoder. På liknande sätt möjliggörs olika sätt att jobba och bygga med trä till exempel med limträ och KL-trä eller som alternativ med japanska träfogar.

The point with this exam-essay is to study how the strength in glulam beams reinforced with carbon fiber will differentiate with an increased relative humidity (RH). The literature study brings up older work and science in the field that focuses on different reinforcement that can improve the strength in glulam beams.Glulam has higher strength than regular wood, this is due to how glulam is being constructed. When the usage limit condition is being determined the length of the beam will be a factor in deciding highest allowed bending on the beam. Carbon fiber, that has a greater strength than glulam can be used as a reinforcement on the glulam to give it higher strength. When the relative humidity is increased the glulam’s strength will decrease, the goal was to study how great the strength of the reinforced glulam beams would be when the relative humidity in the beams was being increased.In this essay a total of 26 glulam-samples was bent until they reached breaking point, out of these 26 samples half of them will be reinforced with carbon fiber underneath the beam. Half of the samples will be submerged in water, both reinforced and regular beams, where they will stay in two weeks until they are brought up again for bending-tests.The reinforced beams did not show an increase in torque capacity when compared to the non-reinforced beams when analyzing the average force. When analyzing the calculated 95 % -fractile the reinforced beams did show an increase in torque capacity. The dry reinforced glulam-beams showed an increase with 4,8 % and the wet reinforced glulam-beams showed an increase with 13,3 %.

O Brasil, um país de dimensões continentais e inúmeros rios em seu território, tem uma enorme carência de pontes para pequenos e médios vãos. Atualmente, a elevada produção de madeira de reflorestamento traz à engenharia uma opção de material renovável e ecologicamente correto para se utilizar em prol do ser humano nas obras de infraestrutura, mais especificamente na construção de pontes, uma vez que a madeira possui ótimo desempenho quando sujeita a cargas de curta duração. A utilização de Madeira Laminada Colada (MLC) permite a fabricação de peças de grandes dimensões, com excelente estabilidade, e com elevado controle de qualidade, proporcionando segurança e confiabilidade à estrutura. Este trabalho tem como objetivo o estudo teórico de pontes em vigas de MLC e tabuleiros em painéis de MLC utilizando procedimentos desenvolvidos por pesquisadores internacionalmente renomados e adequando estes procedimentos para as normas e condições brasileiras. Apresentam-se neste trabalho tabelas para pré-dimensionamento deste tipo de ponte para vãos de 8m a 20m para TB-30 e TB-45. Além disso, analisam-se numérica e experimentalmente os ganhos de rigidez e redução de deslocamentos relativos proporcionados pela utilização de vigas de enrijecimento, bem como a influência da seção destas vigas e a quantidade de parafusos utilizados para interligar ao tabuleiro. Por fim, apresentam-se algumas disposições construtivas não estruturais fundamentais para o bom funcionamento deste tipo de estrutura. / Brazil, a continental size country and with many rivers in its territory, has a huge necessity for short and medium spans bridges. Nowadays, the high production of reforestation wood allows to engineering an option of renewable material and ecologically correct to be used in favor to humans in infrastructure works, most specifically in bridges construction, once timber has a great performance in quick loads. The use of Glued-Laminated Timber (Glulam) enable the manufacture of large sizes members, with excellent stability, and a high control of quality in its production, providing a safety and reliability structure. This work aim the theoretical study of glulam stringers bridge and glulam panels deck using procedures developed by international researchers and adapting those procedures for Brazilian conditions and normalizations. Pre-design tables are presented in this work for 8m to 20m spans for TB-30 and TB-45. In addition to, analyses numerical and experimentally the gain of stiffness and the reduction of relative displacements between panels provided by the use of stiffener beams, besides the influence of those beams section size and number of bolts used for deck interconnection. Finally, it is presented some not structural constructive arrangements essential for good performance of this kind of structure.

No cenário da produção de edificações sustentáveis, a madeira laminada colada (MLC) ocupa lugar de destaque, sobretudo pela possibilidade de emprego de madeiras provenientes de florestas plantadas. Com o propósito de amenizar os problemas de durabilidade, quando exposta às intempéries, uma solução pressupõe a associação das vigas de MLC com um tabuleiro de concreto armado, sendo as partes ligadas por meio de conexões flexíveis. Essa técnica tem sido aplicada com sucesso, especialmente por conta do expressivo acréscimo de rigidez proporcionado pela composição. No entanto, em situações de elevados carregamentos ou de grandes vãos, a aplicação de reforços com fibras sintéticas, na face tracionada das vigas de MLC, aprimora ainda mais essa técnica, refletindo-se em significativos acréscimos nas forças de ruptura. Neste trabalho avaliou-se, de forma experimental e numérica, o comportamento estrutural de vigas mistas de MLC-concreto reforçadas com fibras de vidro. Numa primeira etapa foram estudados os elementos de ligação, optando-se pelos ganchos de aço com diâmetro de 8 mm pelo seu excepcional desempenho. Em seguida foram confeccionadas as vigas mistas, com e sem reforços com fibras de vidro, registrando-se acréscimo médio de 37% no módulo de ruptura (MOR) das vigas mistas em relação às vigas de MLC, ambas reforçadas com fibras. O emprego do reforço com fibras sintéticas se justifica pela diminuição na dispersão dos resultados. Por fim, um algoritmo foi proposto para o dimensionamento das vigas mistas de MLC-concreto reforçadas com fibras de vidro, o qual, associado às avaliações numéricas e experimentais, permite ampliar os horizontes de aplicação das estruturas de madeira. / Production of sustainable constructions forms a scenario where glulam beams occupy a prominence place, because of the possibility of utilization of wood that comes from planted forests. With the intention of diminution in the durability problems, when exposed to the weather effects, a solution presupposes the association of glulam beams with a reinforced concrete slab, in which the components are linked by means of flexible connections. This technique has been applied with results, especially due to the expressive increment in stiffness provided by the composition. However, in situations where high loads or great spans are found, the application of synthetic fibers reinforcements in the tension side of glulam beams improve this technique, being reflected in significant increments in the rupture forces. In this study it was evaluated, in experimental and numerical way, the structural behavior of glulam-concrete composite beams reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP). In a first stage the connection elements were studied, being opted for steel hooks with 8 mm in diameter because of their exceptional behavior. Soon after, the composite beams were made with and without GFRP reinforcements and their tests showed average increment of 37% in modulus of rupture (MOR), when the composite beams were compared to glulam beams, both reinforced with GFRP. The decrease in the variability of results justifies the use of synthetic fibers reinforcements. Finally, an algorithm was proposed for the design of glulam-concrete composite beams reinforced with GFRP. So, when associated with the experimental and numerical evaluations that were carried out, this method allows enlarging the horizons of timber structures applications.

A primeira ferrovia no Brasil foi inaugurada em abril de 1854 pelo Barão de Mauá com 14,5 km de extensão. Atualmente o país possui 27980 km de ferrovias e esse modal tem participação em 25% na matriz brasileira de transporte de carga. Um dos componentes mais importantes da superestrutura ferroviária é o dormente, que pode ser fabricado utilizando-se diversos materiais como a tradicional madeira, que tem uso histórico e consagrado para esta aplicação estrutural, além do concreto e do aço, e mais recentemente, os compósitos poliméricos. As madeiras com maior tradição no uso em dormentes provêm de espécies nativas de alta densidade com consequente elevada resistência mecânica e durabilidade natural. Porém, devido às restrições impostas à extração destas espécies nativas, houve forte redução de sua oferta, sendo forçada sua substituição por madeira de florestas plantadas de eucalipto de alta densidade como E. citriodora, E. paniculata e E. tereticornis. Contudo, dormentes de diferentes espécies de eucalipto, pouco adequadas para esse uso, estão apresentando muitos problemas em via. Outra madeira de florestas plantadas muito utilizada no Brasil é o pinus e uma aplicação muito nobre para este tipo de madeira é a produção de elementos estruturais em Madeira Lamelada Colada (MLC). O objetivo do presente trabalho foi o estudo teórico e experimental de dormentes de MLC confeccionados com madeiras de Pinus spp. tratadas com CCA, coladas com adesivo poliuretano, e reforçados com tecido bidirecional de fibra de vidro. Para tanto, realizou-se um estudo teórico e experimental a partir de ensaios estáticos e dinâmicos tendo-se em vista a necessidade de utilização de novas espécies de madeira de reflorestamento com resistência adequada a tal finalidade. Os resultados obtidos nos ensaios realizados de acordo com a normalização vigente atestaram a viabilidade técnica da utilização de dormentes em MLC de Pinus spp. reforçados com fibra de vidro desde que sejam realizadas as classificações visual e mecânica das lamelas, para a obtenção das propriedades de resistência e rigidez necessárias. / Brazil\'s first railroad was inaugurated in April, 1854 by Barão de Mauá with 14.5 km of extension. Currently the country has 27980 km of railways, and this transportation modal has 25% participation in the Brazilian freight transport matrix. One of the most important elements of railway superstructure is the sleeper (or tie), which can be manufactured from several materials, such as the traditional wood, that has historical and well-established use for this structural application, as well as concrete, steel, and recently, polymer composites. The classic sleeper is made by timber from native species of high density with consequent high mechanical strength and natural durability. However, due to the restrictions imposed on the extraction of these native species, there was a strong reduction in their supply, being forced to replace them with timber from high density eucalyptus planted forests such as E. citriodora, E. paniculata and E. tereticornis. Therefore, sleepers from different eucalyptus species, that are not suitable for this use, are presenting many problems on railroad. Another wood from planted forests widely used in Brazil is the pinus, and a very noble application for this kind of wood is the production of structural elements in Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam). The aim of this work was the theoretical and experimental study based on static and dynamic tests of Glulam sleepers manufactured using Pinus spp. treated with CCA, glued with polyurethane adhesive, and reinforced with bidirectional fiberglass fabric. For that, a theoretical and experimental study was carried out from static and dynamic tests, considering the potential use of new reforestation species of wood with suitable strength to this purpose. The results show technical feasibility in the use of Glulam sleepers made with Pinus spp. reinforced with fiberglass provided that visual and mechanical classifications of the timber are realized, in order to obtain the required strength and stiffness properties.
