Design of timber-concrete composite structures

Beschreibung

Timber-concrete composite structures are one alternative to common slab systems, since the advantages of pure timber slabs are combined with the advantages of pure concrete slabs. In order to benefit from these advantages, the systems have to be designed, considering the special properties and influences on the load carrying behavior and the deformation behaviour of this type of composite systems in the short term as well as in the long term. The aim of this document is to report the state of the art in terms of research and practice of Timber-Concrete Composite (TCC) systems, in order to summarize the existing knowledge in the single countries and to develop a common understanding of the design of TCC. This report was made within the framework of WG4-Hybrid Structures within COST Action FP1402. It intends to reflect the information and studies available around the world, but especially in Europe through the active contribution and participation of experts from various countries involved in this Action. This state-of-the-art report will cover the relevant issues, such as - Input values - Connection - Evaluation of forces in the short and long term - Design examples - Methods for the evaluation of forces
