The estimation of the properties of in situ timber elements is an essential part of the structural appraisal of many existing buildings and structures around the world. Current methods of doing this are (i) inappropriate, as they utilise visual gradi... Read More about The assessment of the mechanical and physical properties of in situ timber.

The estimation of the mechanical properties of in situ timber elements is an essential part of the structural appraisal of many existing buildings and structures. Currently, in the UK, this appraisal of load-bearing timber is generally carried out b...
