Effect of inspection holes on flexural properties of Douglas-fir utility poles

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J., Sinha, Arijit, Clauson, Milo, and Love, Connie S.
Abstract:: Routine inspection of wood utility poles to detect internal decay involves drilling holes at or about the ground line. While these holes are useful for detecting internal decay, their presence raises concern among engineers about their potential effects on pole flexural properties. The effect of inspection holes on flexural properties...

Effect of Initial Preservative Treatment on Electrical Conductivity in Douglas-Fir Pole Sections

Creator:: Jeffrey J. Morrell, Milo Clauson, and Connie S. Love
Abstract:: The effect of copper naphthenate treatment on electrical resistance of Douglas-fir utility poles was compared with similar poles either left untreated or treated with pentachlorophenol (penta). Penta-treated and untreated wood had similar electrical resistance shortly after treatment and after a 3-month outdoor weathering period. Electrical resistance of copper naphthenate– treated...

Behavior of a One-Sixth Scale Wood-Framed Residential Structure under Wave Loading

Creator:: Wilson, Jebediah S., Gupta, Rakesh, van de Lindt, John W., Clauson, Milo, and Garcia, Rachel
Abstract:: The goal of this study was to develop an understanding of the nature of wave loading on a wood-framed scale residential building model for a variety of building configurations and test conditions. Testing was performed on a 1/6th scale two-story wood-framed residential structure. The structure was impacted with waves and...

Evaluation of Tsunami Loads on Wood Frame Walls at Full Scale

Creator:: Linton, David, Gupta, Rakesh, Cox, Dan, van de Lindt, John, Oshnack, Mary Elizabeth, and Clauson, Milo
Abstract:: The performance of full-scale light-frame wood walls subjected to wave loading was examined using the Large Wave Flume of the Network for Earthquake Engineering (NEES) Tsunami Facility at Oregon State University. The hydrodynamic conditions (water level and bore speed) and structural response (horizontal force, pressure, and deflection) were observed for...

Settling tubes for size analysis of fine and coarse fractions of oceanic sediments

Creator:: Thiede, Jörn, 1941-, Chriss, T., Clauson, M., and Swift, S. A.
Abstract:: Instrumentation for rapid, high precision size analysis of silt and sand size particles has been acquired and/or developed by the marine geology group of the School of Oceanography of Oregon State University. A Cahn automatic electrobalance with particle sedimentation accessories is used for size analysis of the silt fraction of...

Quake, Rattle, and Roll: Simulating "The Big One" with dynamic earthquake tests

Creator:: Davis, Caryn
Abstract:: Earthquake tests have trouble imitating the randomness and varied nature of actual earthquakes. Scientists seek to remedy this and make buildings safer by creating dynamic tests that imitate the random nature of earthquakes. Featuring Dr. Rakesh Gupta.

Effect of grain angle on shear strength of Douglas-fir wood

Creator:: Gupta, Rakesh and Sinha, Arijit
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 Location of the Neutral Axis in Wood Beams with Multiple Knots

Creator:: Voigt, Levi R.
Abstract:: In a homogenous and isotropic material, the location of the neutral axis coincides with the location of the centroid of the beam. Wood is anisotropic, meaning that it has different properties in different directions. It is also non-homogenous, meaning that the beam exhibits different properties at different locations throughout its...
