Racking performance of timber studwork and hemp-lime walling
Hemp-lime is a natural, sustainable low carbon insulating material. It is formed from three main constituents: hemp shiv; lime based binder; and, water. Its use within the construction industry is a relatively recent...
Elastic response of cross laminated engineered bamboo panels subjected to in-plane loading

Dec 01, 2019
Novel cross-laminated bamboo panels comprising three and five layers (G-XLam3 and G-XLam5) were tested in compression along the main (0°) and the transverse (90°) directions. Linear variable differential transformer (LVDT)...

Forests worldwide are overstocked with small-diameter trees, putting them at increased risk of disease, insect attack, and destructive high-intensity wildfires. This overstocking is caused primarily by the low market value of...

Structural development and testing of a prototype house using timber and straw bales
One approach to reducing embodied carbon dioxide of buildings is the increased use of plant-based construction materials such as prefabricated straw bale panels. This paper presents findings from the development and structural...

Mechanical characterisation of structural laminated bamboo
Low carbon construction materials are needed to reduce CO2 emissions in the built environment. Laminated bamboo is an example of such a material, however to be used in structural applications, fundamental mechanical properties...
