The purpose of this paper is to propose a new moment resisting joints for glue laminated wood frames using serrated surface. The proposed joints is composed with glue-laminated members with serrated process on the connection surface and bolts. The members are assembled so as to mesh with the serrated surface each other, and are fastened with bolts. In order to investigate the mechanical properties of the proposed joints, the static loading tests are conducted for 17 types of specimens of moment resisting joints. Parameters considered in the experiments are existence of serrated surface, the number of bolts and existence of steel side plates. Features of the proposed joints obtained with the loading tests are as follows. 1) The proposed joint has higher stiffness and strengths than bolts joints or drift-pin joints. 2) Both the stiffness and strengths of the proposed joint increase with increasing the number of bolts, or with using steel side plates. 3) The proposed moment resisting joint is simple and easy to construct.
