This paper presents an analysis of the vibroacoustic characteristics of Cross-Laminated
Timber (CLT) panels using a Wave and Finite Element (WFE) method. Two WFE modelling …

Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood with good structural properties and it
is also economically competitive with the traditional building construction materials …

The acoustic modelling of timber constructions is a major concern since wood construction
technology has started to tackle multi-storey buildings. The recent update of the EN ISO …

High-rise wooden buildings are increasing in popularity, and they typically include cross-
laminated timber in the structure. Taller buildings result in higher loads on the junctions …

This paper presents a wave and finite element method for predicting the sound transmission
loss of double-leaf walls comprising panels of arbitrary complexity separated by a cavity …

Timber buildings are recently experiencing a period of great prosperity. Frame structures,
which can be counted among the most ancient construction techniques, saw a strong return …

In order to design and optimise a structure providing good sound insulation, it is
fundamental to characterise how it vibrates and radiates sound. A mechanically excited …

In recent years, the use of sustainable construction materials has increased significantly. It is
of paramount importance to increase the general knowledge of acoustic behaviour of these …

Cross-laminated timber is an engineered wood, constituted by an odd number of layers of
lumber beams glued together orthogonally. CLT is gaining popularity in Europe and North …

In this contribution, the problem of sound radiation by a rectangular baffled cross-laminated
timber (CLT) plate excited by a point force is addressed. Due to the inherent properties of …
