“…In some cases, statistical processing has been implemented to remove unreliable data. In [9][10][11][12][13], wavelet packet analysis was utilized to apply a standardized statistical filtering approach to data collected from various types of sensors.

Several structural health monitoring projects have recently emerged to document the hygrothermal behaviour of mass timber buildings during both construction and service. Understanding moisture conditions on site can significantly impact the construction efficiency of mass timber structures. It is also essential to comprehend the effectiveness of moisture control strategies and construction practices in different climates to streamline project delivery and prevent long-term durability issues. This paper describes the first period of hygrothermal monitoring of three mass timber buildings in three different climate zones, outlining potential approaches for enhancing and integrating data, which can leverage the increasing availability of data from various monitoring projects.

“…Ahmed and Arocho [15] investigated the existing awareness level of timber building material in the U.S. construction industry, construction-related challenges, and recommendations to increase its current acceptance level. The structural health of timber structures was monitored in different research works [16][17][18][19]. It was recognized that monitoring may help prevent damages, and the most important parameters to be monitored are the moisture content of wood, indoor and outdoor climate, deformations, displacements, cracks, delamination, and pre-stressing forces.…”

Factors Influencing Choice of Wooden Frames for Construction of Multi-Story Buildings in Sweden

2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Construction of buildings with wooden frames higher than two stories has been permitted in Sweden since 1994. As construction of multi-story buildings with wooden frames is relatively new, people in the construction industry are more likely to construct these buildings with concrete frames. The current research evaluates the factors influencing the choice of wooden frames for construction of multi-story buildings in Sweden. The purpose of this study is to explain which advantages and disadvantages construction companies in Sweden consider with wooden construction and to highlight the factors for why multi-story buildings are built with wood to a lesser extent than with other materials. The main goal is to investigate what factors or assumptions construction companies base their decisions on, and whether experience and competence in wooden frames for construction of multi-story buildings are considered in short supply in Sweden today. The chosen method for this research is a descriptive survey study with a qualitative and quantitative approach. The survey is based on respondents from five leading building companies in Sweden with regard to the companies’ revenue. The respondents had either previous experience in constructing multi-story buildings with wooden frames, experienced respondents (ERs), or no experience, unexperienced respondents (UERs). 63% of the respondents were ERs, while 37% of them were UERs. It is resulted that the respondents think there is a lack of competence and experience in wooden frames for construction of multi-story buildings in Sweden. Factors that have the greatest impact on decisions to construct with wooden frames are positive environmental and climatic aspects as well as production advantages. Factors that are considered as major obstacles to construct with wooden frames are cost, acoustics, and moisture problems.

“…This phenomenon is primarily significant for steel structures but may also occur in reinforced concrete structures characterized by low stiffness. The influence of temperature on the deformation phenomena of structural elements and entire structures, considering various materials, has been widely described in the literature [42][43][44][45][46][47]. In recent years, along with new technologies, the temperature measurement of building objects, structural elements, and surroundings has been performed using thermovision [48,49].…”

Experimental Research of the Structure Condition Using Geodetic Methods and Crackmeter

et al. 2022

The article presents an approach to monitoring the structure’s condition with two measurement methods: the SHM-X crackmeter and the classic geodetic method of determining displacements, supplemented with additional information on the condition of the external environment obtained from thermal images. The study aimed to propose an approach combining geodetic and non-geodetic methods of assessing the condition of a structure and its effectiveness in practical application. The research facility is a public utility building of the Bydgoszcz University of Technology with a reinforced concrete structure. Objects of this type require periodic tests of their constancy. Interpreting the test results and identifying possible dangerous states that may indicate the risk of a construction failure is extremely important. The results presented in the article are an extension of the previous ones, in which several factors that could have a destructive effect on the structure were excluded. Observation of the object showed that only the reinforced construction plate is deformed. The only factor influencing the change in structure geometry is thermal changes. As part of the tests in places where cracks were noticed, the SHM-X crackmeter was used to measure the cracks’ opening. In the geodetic research, measurements of the measurement and control network displacement were carried out, in which the TDRA6000 laser station measurement technology was used. The control points were also placed in places where the width of the cracks was directly observed. The proposed approach, with the applied calculation scheme and supplementing the information with the temperature measurement with thermal images, showed the submillimeter accuracy of the determined 3D displacements of the controlled points. Additionally, the parallel application of these methods gives a complete picture of changes in the structure elements, in which signs of destruction appear under the influence of stress.
