Multi-hazard performance of bridge timber piles retrofitted with fiber reinforced polymer composites
Bridges with various timber structural components make up a large portion of the transportation infrastructure in the US. Bridges supported on timber pile substructure, simply referred to as timber pile bridges, are particularly common. Many timber pile bridges still in service today were …

Study on improved neutral plane analysis of deep foundation for lightweight buildings on soft soil - Raft foundation on timber piles for 3-5 levels building
Current building standards and guidelines allow a timber construction to be built with more than two floors, an opening of the market to choose timber as material in load-bearing structures. Because of the weight of the building, this will lead to modification of ground foundation in consideration …

Detection of subsurface anomalies in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapped timber bridge components using infrared thermography
… in fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapped timber bridge components. An extensive literature review on the application of various nondestructive evaluation techniques to composite structures has also been presented.;Simulated subsurface delaminations were constructed in the laboratory in …

A study on the behaviour of guided wave propagation in utility timber poles
Timber is a widely used engineering material because of its availability and good engineering properties. The round timber is suitable for electricity poles, wharfs, piles, bridge piers, etc. There are nearly 7 million utility poles in the current network in Australia, in which around 5 million …

A Laboratory and Field Study of Composite Piles for Bridge Substructures
Typically, foundation piles are made of materials such as steel, concrete, and timber. Problems associated with use of these traditional pile materials in harsh marine environments include steel corrosion, concrete deterioration, and marine borer attack on timber piles. It has been estimated that …
