| Abstract | Laminated timber constructions have been gaining popularity in Canada ever since provincial building codes were changed to allow for taller buildings constructed of laminated timber elements. Common laminated timber elements include cross-laminated timber, nail-laminated timber, dowel-laminated timber and glued laminated timber. The National Research Council Canada has undertaken a multiyear research project to characterize laminated timber elements in terms of transmission loss, loss factors and radiation efficiencies to be able to predict the apparent transmission loss and the apparent sound transmission class (ASTC) rating of mass timber buildings. The research project has also included the measurement of the vibration reduction index of junctions. This paper summarizes the results of the study of the laminated timber elements both with and without linings. |
