Evaluation of the torsion test as a method to determine the shear strength of structural composite lumber

Creator:

Siller, Tobias Stefan

Abstract:

Torsion test was evaluated as a method to determine the shear strength parallel to grain of full-size structural composite lumber (SCL). Experimental results of eighty-five rectangular (44 x 140 mm²) specimens were verified by finite element analysis. Laminated strand lumber (LSL), laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and parallel strand lumber (PSL)...

Evaluation of the torsion test for determining the shear strength of structural lumber

Creator:

Heck, Leanne Renee

Abstract:

The torsion test was evaluated as a method for determining the shear strength of full-size structural lumber. The evaluation involved an experimental length study, an experimental depth study, and a finite element study. The length study consisted of fifty nominal 2x4 specimens, ten specimens for each length, and ten American...
