Thermomechanical Analysis of Steel-to-Timber Connections under Fire and the Material Density Effect

This work presents a thermomechanical numerical analysis of a steel-to-timber connection with dowels in tension when exposed to fire using ANSYS <sup>®</sup> software. Three different wood density materials were considered. The connection is built by a three-dimensional model with a ther...
