This paper presents the experimental studies performed to investigate the feasibility of the proposed photogrammetric system for torsion tests. In this study, two binocular stereo systems were used to measure the surface rotation of timber glulam bea...

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.

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...
