Technology and Conclusions from Long-Term Monitoring of Large Span Roof Timber Construction

Abstract:

The paper includes conclusions from evaluation of results obtained from long-term measuring of innovative atypical roof timber structures. Based on the results of measurements of vertical and horizontal deformation components it is possible to analyze the real behaviour of structures in given conditions. By assessing deformations in various stages, including particularly external and internal environment temperatures, relative air humidity and wood moisture content, decisive parameters for real structure behaviour can be established. The data processed are from period 2001 – 2013.
