Shrink-fitting and dowel welding in mortise and tenon structural wood joints
نویسندگان
چکیده
Shrink-fitting, a common bonding technique in metal assemblies, was used for mortise and tenon wood joints. The joints had considerable strength. Shrink-fitting yielded joint strengths comparable to those obtained by using several welded dowels. Increasing the number of welded dowels, however, produced joints of higher strength than those bonded just by shrink-fitting. Combining in the same joint both dowel welding and shrink-fitting yielded joint strengths higher than those obtained by the individual techniques alone, and at the same time allowing decreasing the number of welded dowels needed.

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...

Tests were conducted to compare the performance characteristics of school chairs constructed with pinned but unglued round mortise and tenon joints with those of chairs with glued but unpinned joints. Chairs with 0.125-inch cross pins in 0.723-inch diameter tenons developed over 90 percent of the strength of the chairs with glued tenons, whereas chairs with 0.313-inch diameter pins developed on...

Structural tests were conducted to determine the strength and deflection characteristics of an 8 by 10 foot light-timber barn frame constructed with 3.5-inch square Douglas-fir members and round mortise and tenon joints. Structural analyses of the frame were also conducted using finite element methods and predicted deflections compared with test values. Results of the tests indicated that the r...
