Presentation / Conference Contribution
O'Neill, S., Zhang, H., & Pawelak, M. (2011, September). An Industrial Knowledge Collaborative CAD System for Scaffolding Structures. Presented at Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Conference on Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering Computing

Scaffolds are a form of temporary structure widely used throughout the construction industry for various purposes. Some common uses are to provide access, for storage of materials or as temporary support. The design of such structures is governed by...

Evaluation of the Shear Constant of a Timber Beam using a Photogrammetric Approach (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhang, H., Mohamed, A., & Xiao, Z. (2011, June). Evaluation of the Shear Constant of a Timber Beam using a Photogrammetric Approach. Presented at Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Conference on Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering Computing

The shear modulus is a fundamental mechanical property of wood that is used in general timber design [1,2,3]. Compared with other engineering materials, timber has relatively low shear stiffness in comparison to its modulus of elasticity, and so shea...
