| dc.description.abstract | The effect of grain angle (GA) on shear strength of Douglas-fir has been evaluated. Shear block specimens with a GA varying from 0 to 90° was loaded in the shear plane, resulting in failure mode transitioning from parallel to grain shear to rolling shear. As expected, shear strength decreased as the GA increased from 0° to 90°. A root-mean-square equation was found to be suitable to predict the relationship between GA and shear strength. Traditional Hankinson formula and the Tsai-Wu criteria were less effective with this regard. | en_US |
