DESCRIPTION:There is limited research on elevated temperature performance o
 f CLT connections\, and consequentially a lack of full understanding of the
  fire performance of CLT structures. Therefore\, tests were conducted on a 
 CLT wall-to-floor bracket connection assembly to characterize thermal degra
 dation according to a matrix of 28 exposure duration-temperature combinatio
 ns. The first phase of the research developed simple models to predict ther
 mal degradation of two basic engineering parameters\, peak strength and ela
 stic stiffness. The second phase of the research used two different methods
  to develop force-displacement backbone models from the experimental hyster
 esis data. Results from both studies indicate significant thermal degradati
 on of the connection performance at elevated temperatures. This research is
  a step towards holistic evaluation of elevated temperature modeling of CLT
  structures\, and identifies a need for further research in elevated temper
 ature performance of CLT structural systems.\n\n \n\nKolton Mahr was born a
 nd raised in Grants Pass\, OR.  He originally came to Oregon State Universi
 ty to study Forestry\, but also became interested in structural engineering
  during his undergraduate career. Researching CLT allowed him to stay invol
 ved with both forestry and structural engineering\, while learning about th
 e high performing and sustainable material that could provide a boost to th
 e local timber industry. After graduation he plants to move to Portland to 
 start his career at KPFF consulting engineers.
