    Finger-Joint Lumber: A Systematic Literature Review and a Global Industry Survey on this Ecofriendly Structural Building Material

    Victor De Araujo1,2,3,*, Pedro Jardim3,4, Poliana Pessôa3, Juliano Vasconcelos2,5, Matheus Souza6, José Garcia7, Jozef Švajlenka8, André Christoforo3,1

    Journal of Renewable Materials, Vol.13, No.12, pp. 2479-2524, 2025, DOI:10.32604/jrm.2025.02025-0127 - 23 December 2025

    Abstract Finger-joint lumber is a sustainable building product commercialized as a structural solution for beams, pillars and other thin flat load-bearing elements. This study aims to study finger-joint lumber and its industry to promote this engineered wood product. The first research stage assessed the collection of publications on finger-joint lumber available globally, in which a structured protocol was developed to prospect studies based on two complementary methodologies: PRISMA 2020 using Scopus and Web of Science databases, and Snowball using both forward and backward models to complete with additional literature. The second research stage assessed finger-joint lumber… More >

    Comparative Study on Various Strength Parameters of Structural Elements Made from Cross-Laminated Timber

    Mohammad Anwar-Us-Saadat1, Janeshka Goonewardena2, Bidur Kafle2, Mahmud Ashraf2,*, Mahbube Subhani2

    Journal of Renewable Materials, Vol.10, No.6, pp. 1575-1606, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jrm.2022.018919 - 20 January 2022

    Abstract Cross laminated timber (CLT) is an innovative and environment friendly engineered timber product with superior structural performance. CLT offers strong resistance against both in-plane and out-of-plane loading. Hence, it is widely used as floors, roofs or wall elements. Considerable experimental research on CLT under various loading conditions has been done in the recent past. This article presents a comprehensive review of various design methods to determine basic mechanical properties such as tension, compression and rolling shear strength of CLT with primary focus on Norway spruce. All relevant experimental data available from existing literature were collated More >
