The construction of timber structures offers a significant advantage in reducing the carbon footpnnt associated with building activities. However, to fully realize this benefit, it is essential to enable the construction of large and tall timber buildings. Achieving this goal presents certain engineering …

Dit rapport biedt circulaire mkb-ondernemingen ondersteuning bij het inzichtelijk maken van hun verdienmodellen en de bijbehorende risico’s, om zo de toegang tot bankfinanciering te vergemakkelijken. De risico’s van circulaire verdienmodellen zijn voor banken nieuw en vaak moeilijk in te schatten. Bovendien …

The shift from linear to circular business models is critical for sustainability in the construction and manufacturing sectors in the Netherlands. However, many companies face significant challenges in making this transition, including financial constraints, cultural resistance, and regulatory hurdles, …

Post-earthquake structural damage shows that out-of-plane (OOP) wall collapse is one of the most common failure mechanisms in unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings. This issue is particularly critical in Groningen, a province located in the northern part of the Netherlands, where low-intensity induced …

The seismic assessment of the out-of-plane (OOP) behaviour of unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings is essential since the OOP is one of the primary collapse mechanisms in URM buildings. It is influenced by several parameters, including the poor connections between structural elements, a weakness highlighted …

This study investigates key drivers that contribute to the degradation of Dyploknema butyraceae (Chiuri) inside two neighboring community forests in the Chitwan district of Nepal. The research focusses on how anthropogenic and ecological factors, such as land use practices, socio-eco-nomic changes, management …

Out-of-plane (OOP) collapse is one of the most observed damage types in masonry structures during strong earthquakes. OOP strength of a masonry wall depends on several parameters such as the dimensions of the wall, vertical restoring force, boundary conditions and material properties, which are parameters …
