| Gaia: | In this paper the authors intend to present the results of the experimental research on the dowel joints
applied for 18mm particleboard panels, in order to determine the optimal embedment depth of the dowels,
depending on the mechanical resistance of the joint. For this purpose edge to edge joints and "T" type joints of
the particleboard panels have been made, using dowel pins of different diameters (6, 8 and 10mm) and
various embedment depths (10, 15, 18, 20 and 25mm). These joints were subjected to parallel and
respectively perpendicular tensile stresses, depending on the joint type. The experimental results show that
the tensile strength, no matter if parallel or perpendicular, increases with the increasing of the embedment
depth of the dowel, the best values being recorded for the applied dowels of 8mm diameter. |
