Résumé

The impact of variations of relative humidity, temperature and moisture content on the creep of notched beams of Douglas fir and white fir are investigated. Indoor static 4-points bending tests are followed by outdoor creep tests of notched beams designed to trigger the breakage mode associated with the use of notched ends. The dimensions of wood specimens follow Eurocode requirements. The maximum load applied to outdoor creep tests is derived from the failure load obtained during indoor instantaneous tests. The results show that the variations of the relative humidity and temperature, coupled with the loading, play a key role in the lifetime of timber, as they accelerate its aging. In addition, the link between the changes of climatic parameters and the damage of the beams and the limit of their lifetime as structure is shown.
