An Integrated Approach to Improve Seismic and Energetic Behaviour of RC Framed Buildings Using Timber Panels

In the present paper, an integrated intervention system applicable to concrete-framed buildings is presented. The purpose of improve both seismic and energetic behaviour such using cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels. Two alternative configurations with different levels invasiveness are described. Considering a double-wythe masonry-infilled frame, most invasive configuration consists in replacement external masonry wythe CLT panel, while least arrangement panel from outside without removing wythes. technical details implementation procedures were studied, considering functionality disturbance occupants. An isolated one-storey-one-bay frame was used as reference for thermal analyses. Subsequently, two applied case-study building by identifying strategies. obtained results showed that proposed approach can significantly reduce vulnerability energy consumption concrete buildings.
