Compression and tension tests of wooden elements with glued steel plates

The use of classical elements in spatial structures prefabricated buildings is inefficient due to a design complexity and specific quantity metal the assembled components. paper studies durability, stability deformability wooden with glued plates working multiply connected structure under compressive tensile loads. experiment series include maximum loads causing loss destruction prototypes as well deformation elements. As result, dependences are suggested for carrying capacity on load type, thickness depth steel plate, dependence tension compression efforts. latter can be applied calculations strain scheme modeling joint compliance structure.
