Experiments on Wall Panels with One-Sided Board Sheathing for Timber Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

Timber elements with an I-shaped cross-section are used as supporting elements in wall, ceiling and roof panels of light timber frames. The reinforcement of the panel (I-stud) is provided by means of glued timber composite I-shaped element consisting of a web made of a wood-based desk embedded into flanges of solid or glued laminated timber. The stability of the wall panels is usually ensured by sided board sheathing, which prevents buckling of studs in the plane of the wall or their twist. Walls with one-side board sheathing are used for some types of modern timber structures and their load bearing capacity is determined for situation when one-side sheathing burns down during fire or sheathing is not made of a load-bearing material.
