Special Collection on Advances in Performance Assessment and Design of Timber and Hybrid Buildings
Guest Editors:
Solomon Tesfamariam, Ph.D., P.Eng., M.ASCE, University of British Columbia
This special collection of the Journal of Performance of Constructed Facilities (JPCF) is dedicated to highlight the recent advances in the experimental and analytical research work undertaken for the performance assessment and design of light-timber, mass-timber, and timber-based hybrid buildings for the different hazard types (e.g. earthquake, wind, fire, blast). Papers in this collection contain the current state of the art/practice, including future areas of research.
