  • Small-scale modeling of metal-plate-connected wood truss joints

    Creator:
    Kittel, Mark
    Abstract:
    The objective of this research was to develop a one-third scale model of full-size (prototype) metal-plate-connected (MPC) wood truss joints using similitude theory. The prototype metal connector plates in MPC joints were modeled using thin galvanized sheet metal and short staples. Truss grade wood material was ripped to one-third scale...
