REINFORCING OF HISTORICAL CEILING BEAMS IN THE SHEAR ZONE
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
The article discusses the issues concerning rehabilitation and strengthening of wooden beams in historical naked ceilings in their support area. The causes and effects of the damage in the wooden beams shear zones have been presented. Traditional methods of reinforcing beams along with the examples of their application have been shown. Moreover, modern methods of shear zone rehabilitation as proposed in the literature have been presented. What is more, the article also discusses the proposals of the research program with regard to technological solutions for reinforcing of historical ceiling beams in the shear zone, which will be carried out in the laboratories of the Kielce University of Technology.
