Dynamic Response of Tall Timber Buildings under Service Load

About

The Dynamic Response of Tall Timber Buildings under Service Load (Dyna-TTB) project is supported under the umbrella of ERA-NET Cofund ForestValue. Its aim is to quantify the structural damping in as-built tall timber buildings (TTB), identify and quantify the effects of connections and non-structural elements on the stiffness, damping and wind-induced dynamic response of TTBs, develop a bottom-up numerical finite element model for estimating the dynamic response of multi-storey timber buildings, validate the predicted response with in-situ measurements on TTBs and disseminate findings via a TTB Design Guideline for design practitioners.
