  1. Reinforced Timber Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) Connection Loaded Perpendicular to the Grain

    … study on how bolted timber connections with Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) respond to loading that is perpendicular to the grain. It investigates the topic in three main sections: understanding the stress-strain characteristic of LVL, checking how much splitting failure occurs in unreinforced …

  4. Comparison of Shear Modulus Test Methods

    … test (FPBT) using machine-stress-rated (MSR) lumber and laminated veneer lumber (LVL) to determine if the shear properties evaluated by the different test methods were equivalent. Measured E:G ratios were also compared to the E:G ratio of 16:1 commonly assumed for structural wooden members. …

  5. Investigating Moisture Gradient-Induced Warpage of Veneers

    Flatness of wood composite panels, such as Laminated Veneer Lumber, is often difficult to control during the manufacturing process. Out-of-plane deformation, or warpage, of wood veneers caused by changes in moisture content affects the ability to press flat panels. To understand wood panel warpage, …

    … investigates the effects of FRP reinforcement in Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) bolted connections under double shear loading. The FRP investigated consists of uniaxial carbon fibers embedded in a two-part epoxy. Sixteen sample wood connections were tested. Eight samples were reinforced with FRP …
