Summary
In this paper we investigate the mechanical behaviour of cross-laminated
timber panels using a computational homogenisation approach. A finite element procedure
is adopted within a multi-scalemodelling framework to determine the constitutive
response of timber. In order to validate the presentmulti-scalemodel, we carry out
several experimental tests on cross-laminated timber panels made of radiata pine. Our
predictions are validated successfully, revealing the potential predictive capabilities of
the present multi-scale modelling for the analysis of timber structures.
