Wood Properties and Bonding Shear Strength of Hardwood Glulam After Fire Exposure
Abstract Highlights on glued laminated timber (glulam) of tropical hardwoods have attracted both local and foreign businesses. However, knowledge and technology regarding Malaysian timbers for the glulam application are still very limited. To improve the knowledge on structural performance of tropical timber glulam in fire occurrence, mechanical tests of burned glulam beams were conducted. The study focused on the effect of fire exposure to the mechanical properties of wood and bonding shear strength of the lamination. Based on the results of mechanical test of a selected species, strength and stiffness of timber were reduced due to the exposure to fire. Bonding shear strength of the lamination was also reduced.
