Book Timber Rivet Connections in U S  Domestic Species

Download or read book Timber Rivet Connections in U S Domestic Species written by Marshall Begel and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses results of tests conducted to expand the data base on the performance of timber rivet connections in U.S. domestic species to verify existing and proposed design procedures. Eight-, 80-, and 200-rivet connections were tested. The 8-rivet joint tests illustrate the effects of material type, rivet length, and load direction on the behavior of rivet‍?connections when gross wood failures are avoided. The 80-rivet connections, loaded perpendicular to grain, show the effect of rivet spacing as well as test support conditions on failure mode and strength. The 200-rivet joints, with load applied parallel to grain, provide data for previously reported failure modes, including the rivet yield/wood crush modes modeled by European yield model (EYM) and gross wood failures. The 200-rivet tests also show the effect of rivet spacing on joint strength and failure mode. The tests were conducted in two phases. In Phase I, small‍?specimens were made from Southern Pine and ponderosa pine solid sawn lumber, Hem-Fir and Southern Pine glulam, and parallel strand lumber. The small specimens failed by a combination of rivet yielding and wood crushing as described by EYM, rather than by a gross failure of the wood block. Joint yield load was determined by fitting test data to a curve and finding the load at 5% offset displacement. Basic trends can be seen in the data, but yield load is a poor predictor of ultimate load. In Phase II, large specimens were made from Southern Pine glulam. Larger rivet spacing, wider specimens, and longer rivets generally increased joint capacity; end spacing had no significant effect. Short continuously supported beams had a higher capacity load than did longer simply supported beams. The results show that when wood failure modes occur, thicker glulam has higher capacity, contradicting the size effect of the design code.

Book Timber Engineering

Download or read book Timber Engineering written by Sven Thelandersson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2003-03-14 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timber construction is one of the most prevalent methods of constructing buildings in North America and an increasingly significant method of construction in Europe and the rest of the world. Timber Engineering deals not only with the structural aspects of timber construction, structural components, joints and systems based on solid timber and engineered wood products, but also material behaviour and properties on a wood element level. Produced by internationally renowned experts in the field, this book represents the state of the art in research on the understanding of the material behaviour of solid wood and engineered wood products. There is no comparable compendium currently available on the topic - the subjects represented include the most recent phenomena of timber engineering and the newest development of practice-related research. Grouped into three different sections, 'Basic properties of wood-based structural elements', 'Design aspects on timber structures' and 'Joints and structural assemblies', this book focuses on key issues in the understanding of: timber as a modern engineered construction material with controlled and documented properties the background for design of structural systems based on timber and engineered wood products the background for structural design of joints in structural timber systems Furthermore, this invaluable book contains advanced teaching material for all technical schools and universities involved in timber engineering. It also provides an essential resource for timber engineering students and researchers, as well as practicing structural and civil engineers.

Book Load carrying Capacity and Failure Mode Analysis of Timber Rivet Connections

Download or read book Load carrying Capacity and Failure Mode Analysis of Timber Rivet Connections written by Pouyan Zarnani and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Different brittle, mixed and ductile failure modes of timber connections have long been observed by wood researchers. The wood engineering community has dedicated a significant amount of effort over the last decades to establish a reliable predictive model to determine the capacity of timber connections under different failure modes, particularly, for wood failure mechanisms. The present study focuses on timber rivet connections. In the analytical model developed for the wood block tear-out resistance under parallel to grain loading, the stiffness and strength of the resisting planes subjected to non-uniform shear and tension stresses are taken into account. For the wood splitting resistance under perpendicular to grain loading, the presented design method takes into account the observed two possible wood failures; either partial or full width splitting. A design procedure is presented which allows the designer to calculate the resistances associated with the predictions of the potential brittle, ductile and mixed failure modes. The effective wood thickness for the brittle failure mode is derived and related to the elastic deformation of the fastener. In the case of mixed failure mode (a mixture of brittle and ductile), the wood effective thickness depends on the governing ductile failure mode of the fastener. The fastener failing resistance under yielding and ultimate limit states are determined using the relevant wood embedment strength and the fastener moment capacity. In the proposed analytical models for the prediction of wood strength under longitudinal and transverse loadings, the effect of geometry parameters such as number of fastener rows and columns, spacing along and across the grain, fastener penetration depth, loaded and unloaded edge distances, end distance, and member thickness are considered. The design approach presented is verified using an extensive testing regime conducted on riveted joints under parallel and perpendicular to grain loadings on New Zealand Radiata Pine laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and glulam and the test data from the literature. This improved design approach gives the practitioners the ability to predict the connection ultimate capacity and its failure mode more accurately than the methods used in EC5 and CSA O86. The proposed design approach can be extended to other dowel-type fasteners such as nails, screws and bolts.

Book Structure for Architects

Download or read book Structure for Architects written by Ashwani Bedi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structure for Architects: A Case Study in Steel, Wood, and Reinforced Concrete Design is a sequel to the authors’ first text, Structure for Architects: A Primer, emphasizing the conceptual understanding of structural design in simple language and terms. This book focuses on structural principles applied to the design of typical structural members—a beam, a girder, and a column—in a diagrammatic frame building. Through the application of a single Case Study across three key materials, the book illustrates the theory, principles, and process of structural design. The Case Study progresses step-by-step for each material, from determining tributary areas and loads through a member's selection and design. The book addresses the frequent disparity between the way architects and engineers perceive and process information, with engineers focusing on technical aspects and architects focusing on visual concepts. Structure for Architects: A Case Study in Steel, Wood, and Reinforced Concrete Design presents readers with an understanding of fundamental engineering principles through a uniquely thematic Case Study. Focusing on the conceptual understanding of structural design, this book will be of interest to architecture students and professionals looking to understand the application of structural principles in relation to steel, wood, and concrete design.
