Infos

By presenting the work of the RILEM Technical Committee 245-RTE, the book provides an overview of the existing techniques for the reinforcement of timber elements, joints and structures. It consists of two parts: part I examines state-of-the-art information on reinforcement techniques, summarizes the current status of standardization, and covers STS, GiR, FRP and nanotechnology. In part II several applications of reinforcement are discussed: these include traditional structures, traditional timber frame walls, light-frame shear walls, roofs, floors, and carpentry joints.

The book will benefit academics, practitioners, industry and standardization committees interested in the reinforcement of existing timber elements, joints and structures.

Jorge Branco is professor of timber engineering at University of Minho, Portugal.

Philipp Dietsch is professor for timber engineering, University of Innsbruck, Austria.

Thomas Tannert is professor of wood engineering at the University of Northern British Columbia, Canada.
