Hybrid Steel-Wood Systems

The research grant will help launch a multi-phase study on different hybrid steel-wood structural systems. The focus of this first phase of the project is to conduct a literature review and to develop an identification process of different hybrid steel-wood systems based on their flexibility to economically provide different levels of structural, serviceability, fire and thermal performance.
