AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE OF SIMPLE JOINTS USING LAGSCREWBOLTS WITH STEEL AND WOODEN MEMBERS

Abstract

In this paper we conducted bending tests of a simple joints using lagscrewbolts with steel-wooden- members connections and analyzed those strength. For the tests paremter, we used two species of wood of wooden members two types of cross-section of steel members and chaged the arrangement of lagscrewbolts.
With the proposed equation and material values on the guideline, we could estimate the bending strength. The values of stiffness from tests and equation have a little difference. In the case with Scots pine and H shape beam, that equation is precise in this study.
