Optimization of timber trusses considering joint flexibility
This paper presents the optimization of metal-plate-connected plane timber trusses with special emphasis on joint flexibility. The optimization is performed by the non-linear programming approach. Since various truss design parameters such as type of truss configuration, span/depth ratio, number and type of diagonal and vertical members and type of joint connections simultaneously affect each o...
متن کاملMINPL optimization of timber trusses considering joint flexibility
The paper presents the shape and discrete sizing optimization of timber trusses with the consideration of joint flexibility. The optimization was performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) approach. In the optimization model an economic objective function for minimizing the structure's selfmanufacturing costs was defined. The design conditions in accordance with Eurocode 5 wer...
متن کاملLight Steel-Timber Frame with Composite and Plaster Bracing Panels
The proposed light-frame structure comprises steel columns for vertical loads and an innovative bracing system to efficiently resist seismic actions. This seismic force resisting system consists of a light timber frame braced with an Oriented Strand Board (OSB) sheet and an external technoprene plaster-infilled slab. Steel brackets are used as foundation and floor connections. Experimental cycl...
متن کاملIdentification of Axial Forces on Statically Indeterminate Pin-Jointed Trusses by a Nondestructive Mechanical Test
This work concerns the stress-state identification, produced by loads or dislocations, of statically indeterminate structures. In particular, this paper deals with the case of pin-jointed trusses, since they are a combination of simplicity of the structural model with very interesting technical applications. We present an approach that follows the main guidelines of the flexibility method to re...
متن کاملEquivalence and dynamic analysis for jointed trusses based on improved finite elements
Deployable trusses that are widely applied in space missions utilize many hinged members to adapt to different geometrical shapes and work conditions. This paper presents two improved finite elements for a link and a bending beam to calculate dynamic characteristics of non-jointed and jointed trusses. First, the axial and transverse wave motion equations of a beam are used to get the shape func...
