Monotonic and cyclic short-term performance of nailed and bolted timber connections
… two methods of fully reversing cyclic loading of connections are presented. The first method was a load-controlled test with the applied cyclic loads acting at specified percentages above current nominal design values. The sets of specimens were then ramped to failure and the results were compared …

The Effects of Bolt Spacing on the Performance of Single-Shear Timber Connections Under Reverse-Cyclic Loading
… raised interest in the response of structural connections to dynamic loads. This increased interest led the Consortium of Universities for Research in Earthquake Engineering (CUREE) to develop a testing protocol for reverse-cyclic loading, which involves cycling loads through zero in order to …

Giunti semirigidi con barre incollate per strutture lignee = Ductile moment-resistant steel-timber connections with glued-in bars
… for different configurations within a heavy timber frame, consisting of a wooden element connected to a steel stub by means of an end-plate and glued-in steel rods. This connection system has some interesting properties in terms of mechanical performance, versatility and prefabrication. An …

Disproportionate Collapse Resistance of Timber Beam-column Connections
… as element removal. Multi-material beam-column connections in timber post-and-beam buildings provide deformation capacity, continuity, and ductility necessary to form alternative load paths in the event of such initial damage. Accordingly, these alternative load paths can avert disproportionate …

Reinforced Timber Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) Connection Loaded Perpendicular to the Grain
… outcomes of a comprehensive 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 …
