Also discussed in this book is an experimental analysis of the behaviour of timber-framed walls used as main bearing capacity elements in the construction of prefabricated timber structures. The design of energy efficient buildings; and the characterization of advanced structural materials by acoustic emission indices is also examined.","brand":"Nova Science Publishers Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48886910550359,"sku":"9781617612114","price":162.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/construction-building-design-materials-techniques-9781617612114","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
