Composite Wood-Concrete Panels - Effect of Cyclic Loading and Creep

Since several years, composite structures emerged and are more and more studied and used in civil engineering. Wood-concrete structures have the advantage to improve the mechanical behavior on two points, the load capacity and the stiffness. The principle is to combine concrete which resists under compression and timber under tension. Several systems of connection exist to bond wood and concrete but an innovative system is used in this study...
