Numerical Investigation of the Axial Stress Distribution of Self-Tapping Screws in Mass Timber Products during Wetting or Drying
Self-tapping screws (STS) are used in wood-to-wood and wood-to-steel connections in timber structures. Premature failure of STS during the construction phase has been reported by structural engineers and contractors in relation to a few North American mass-timber projects. This STS failure type is s...
