Selected Problems in Using Round Timber in Building Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

The content of this paper are possibilities of using round timber in various public facilities structures (e.g. children ́s playgrounds) and in engineering constructions (e.g. watchtowers, bridges and footbridges). Specific problems of designing round timber structures, mainly in joints, are presented here.
