Cross-Laminated Timber and Glulam from Low-Density <i>Paraserianthes falcataria</i>: A Look into Densification and Shear Strength

The aim of this study was to investigate the shear performance of cross-laminated timber (CLT) and glulam made from densified <i>Paraserianthes falcataria</i> laminas. The densification process involved pre-treatment, compression with heat (105 °C, 6 MPa), and a cooling phase. CLT was ma...
