Sažetak

An important aspect for the assessment of the life cycle performance of timber structures is the interaction of structural components in structural systems. System effects in timber structures are pronounced because of multiscale spatial variability of environmental exposures and material properties. Further, the concept of robustness is an important characteristic of structural systems. Within the scope of Working Group 3, focus was on studying structural robustness of timber structures resulting in the present guideline for assessment of and design for robustness of timber structures. Robustness aspects for timber structures are presented and illustrated by examples. Further, recommendations for robustness design of timber structures are given.
