The Netherlands has an extensive network of rivers and canals systems serving purposes like irrigation, transportation and water removal. The banks along the canals are either protected by earth retaining structures such as sheet pile walls or left unprotected. A bulk of the engineered sheet piles used to protect the canal banks in the...

Existing masonry buildings are very frequently part of the architectural context for several countries all over the world. These constructions often feature masonry walls as vertical structural elements, and timber floors and roofs as horizontal components. The often poor characteristics of masonry, along with the in-plane flexibility of the...

Timber as a construction material has been used for millennia, but the research field covering the prediction of the strength of structural timber is still in development. Currently, the common conception is that the determination of strength properties has to be determined for every wood species individually. By combining these strength...

Windows and doors are essential elements of buildings. These seemingly simple components have become increasingly complex over the last decades. They have to fulfil an increased number of functions which ask for contradictory solutions and need to comply with more and more severe requirements. Windows and doors need to be transparent to allow...

Timber joints are a key part of timber structures. Their reliable performance is a prerequisite to successful timber construction. The structural loadbearing behaviour of timber joints is mechanically complex and difficult to predict. Although numerical tools are currently available, these do not consider all anisotropic aspects of timber....
