Theoretical Model of Bending Moment for Straight Mortise-and-Tenon Joints with Wooden Pegs Involving a Gap

The stress mechanism of a straight mortise-and-tenon joint with wooden pegs in traditional residential wooden structures was analyzed, and a theoretical moment-rotation model of the joint was derived. To verify the model, three full-scale joint specimens were fabricated and subjected to low-cycle re...

description The stress mechanism of a straight mortise-and-tenon joint with wooden pegs in traditional residential wooden structures was analyzed, and a theoretical moment-rotation model of the joint was derived. To verify the model, three full-scale joint specimens were fabricated and subjected to low-cycle reversed loading tests. All specimens showed tensile cracking parallel to the grain at the top or bottom of the tenon neck. The theoretical calculation results are consistent with the experimental results. The results of the parametric analysis based on the theoretical model show the following: the rotational stiffness and bending moment of the joint increase as the beam width increases; as the beam height increases, the moment increases, but the initial stiffness of the joint is only slightly impacted; as the column diameter increases, the initial stiffness and moment increase, and the free rotation of the joint decreases; as the gap between the mortise and tenon increases, the initial stiffness and moment decrease; as the sliding friction coefficient increases, both the rotational stiffness and moment of the joint increase, and the increase is greater after the joint yields than before.
