Characterizing perpendicular-to-grain compression (C-perpendicular to) behavior in wood construction

Creator:

Basta, Craig Thomas, Gupta, Rakesh, Leichti, Robert J., and Sinha, Arijit

Abstract:

Current compression perpendicular-to-grain (C-perpendicular to) design values for wood members are based on mean stress obtained from ASTM D143 specimen. The standard ASTM test with metal on wood bearing has limited applicability in modern construction assemblies with C-perpendicular to loading scenarios. Previous work has shown that end-bearing conditions and wood-on-wood...
