Influence of stiffness of between-joists bracing on vibrational serviceability of wood floors. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khokhar, A., Chui, Y., & Smith, I. (2012, July). Influence of stiffness of between-joists bracing on vibrational serviceability of wood floors. Presented at World Conference on Timber Engineering

Floors with repetitive parallel wood joists overlain by wood panel sheathing behave as orthotropic two-way structures since their along-joist stiffness is much higher than across-joist stiffness. Due to this orthotropy, they have a tendency to produc... Read More about Influence of stiffness of between-joists bracing on vibrational serviceability of wood floors..

The Use of Torsion Test Method to Evaluate the Shear Properties of Timber Joists (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khokhar, A., & Zhang, J. (2012, July). The Use of Torsion Test Method to Evaluate the Shear Properties of Timber Joists. Presented at 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.
