Abstract

 The mechanism of rotational embedment of traditional wooden strut is analyzed on the basis of loading tests of struts. Formulation of restoring force characteristics of traditional wooden strut joints is established by Elasto-plastic Pasternak Model proposed by the authors. Then the formulation is discussed and verified with rotational embedment test results of struts.
