This month's report concerns durability issues with engineered timber due to water ingress or condensation issues. Engineered timber appears to disintegrate more quickly than conventional timber, resulting in structural failure rather than distortion.
The Library holds books on all aspects of durability, across different materials – ranging from properties to performance and subsequent inspection, maintenance and repair.
This article reveals the winning papers for the Structures prizes 2024: Best Research Paper and Best Research into Practice Paper. It also highlights the Editor's Featured Article for Volume 62.
