Khokhar, A., & Zhang, J. (2012). The Use of Torsion Test Method to Evaluate the Shear Properties of Timber Joists. In P. Quenneville (Ed.), Proceedings of the World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE 2012)

This paper presents details of the experimental method and test results from a series of torsion tests undertaken to evaluate the shear modulus and shear strength of solid timber joist. The variation of shear modulus within and between test samples,... Read More about The Use of Torsion Test Method to Evaluate the Shear Properties of Timber Joists.

Digital image processing of weathered stone for determining the optimum cleaning level of stonework (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Humanyun, R., Zhang, H., & Zhang, B. (2012, July). Digital image processing of weathered stone for determining the optimum cleaning level of stonework. Presented at 14th International Conference and Exhibition on Structural Faults and Repair

In this study, the authors introduced a new image component sampling technique that can be used to evaluate level of cleaning of weathered masonry stone for historic buildings. The proposed technique is based on the Standard Pattern (SP). The images... Read More about Digital image processing of weathered stone for determining the optimum cleaning level of stonework.

Evaluation of shear constant of timber glulam composite with photogrammetric approach (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhang, H., Mohamed, A., & Smith, I. (2017). Evaluation of shear constant of timber glulam composite with photogrammetric approach. In Proceeding of the Fourteenth International Conference on Computing in Civil and Building Engineering

Shear constant of timber glulam materials plays an important role in structural modelling, such as lateral torsional buckling of the glulam beam, floor vibration and stabilities of long span glulam girders. In normal design approach, a fraction of th... Read More about Evaluation of shear constant of timber glulam composite with photogrammetric approach.
