Download or read book Structural Properties of Timber Pile written by RM. Armstrong and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results of test programs with short pile sections and small clear specimens are reviewed to evaluate the influence of imperfections and preservative treatment on the strength properties of timber piles. Reduction factors developed from this review, available information on natural wood strength variations, and available information on the influence of load duration are used to evaluate the structural capacity of embedded timber piles under axial loading. Indicated allowable axial unit stresses for treated timber piles range from 3.8 MPa (550 psi) to 6.4 MPa (925 psi), depending on the extent of knots and treatment conditioning that are permitted in current (1978) timber pile standards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strength properties in compression parallel to grain and bending were determined for Douglas-fir, southern pine, and red oak timber piles. The effect of kiln drying of southern pine piles on crushing strength was investigated. The results should be useful in developing timber pile specifications. (Author).

Download or read book Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions written by Yohei Endo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-03 with total page 1474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers the peer-reviewed papers presented at the 13th International Conference on Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions (SAHC), held in Kyoto, Japan, on September 12-15, 2023. It highlights the latest advances and innovations in the field of conservation and restoration of historical and heritage structures. The conference topics encompass history of construction and building technology, theory and practice of conservation, inspection methods, non-destructive techniques and laboratory testing, numerical modeling and structural analysis, management of heritage structures and conservation strategies, structural health monitoring, repair and strengthening strategies and techniques, vernacular constructions, seismic analysis and retrofit, vulnerability and risk analysis, resilience of historic areas to climate change and hazard events, durability, and sustainability. As such the book represents an invaluable, up-to-the-minute tool, providing an essential overview of conservation of historical constructions, and offers an important platform to engineers, architects, archeologists, and geophysicists.
