Bending Moment Capacity of L-Shaped Mitered Frame Joints Constructed of MDF and Particleboard

investigation of the bending moment and stress carrying capacity in l-shaped biscuit joints fabricated with solid wood and wood based composite

this study was aimed to investigate the bending moment and stress (inner and outer corners) in lshaped biscuit joint made of solid wood, particleboard and medium density fiberboard (mdf). for this purpose, l-shaped joints made of beech and fir, particleboard and mdf by biscuit size numbers of 0 (47×15×3.8 mm), 10 (53×19×3.8mm) and 20 (60×23×3.8mm). bending moment and stress carrying capacity of...

Comparison of the bending-moment resistance of wood-plate and dowel joints in particleboard and lodgepole pine lumber

Tests to Determine the Joint Stiffness and Resisting Moment Capacity of Joints in Timber-Framed Houses

Wind and earthquake disasters in the world often cause billions of dollars of damage to buildings, most of which is to non-engineered buildings-especially homes. Wood-frame homes use connectors which exhibit partial rotational rigidity at the member ends, making analytical solutions difficult. This is due to the lack of information about the complex behavior of the connections used in this type...

Bending Capacity of Middle Joints of Upholstered Furniture Frames

This study evaluates the edgewise bending moment capacity of the four most frequently used middle joints in the upholstered furniture frames. The research included the following joints: Mortise and Tenon, double Dowel, Corner Blocks and double Gusset Plates, designed in the form of middle joints and made of beech and poplar solid wood. The test results indicated that regarding the edgewise bend...

OPTIMAL DESIGN OF COLUMNS FOR AN INTERMEDIATE MOMENT FRAME UNDER UNIAXIAL MOMENT AND AXIAL LOADS

The present study addresses optimal design of reinforced concrete (RC) columns based on equivalent equations considering deformability regulations of ACI318-14 under axial force and uniaxial bending moment. This study contrary to common approaches working with trial and error approach in design, at first presents an exact solution for intensity of longitudinal reinforcement in column section by...
