Evaluation method for embedment stiffness of metal washers in bolted timber joints using torque gradient and nut factor
Abstract Assessing the residual performance of timber joints affected by decay is important for seismic diagnosis and reinforcement of timber structures. This study introduces a method to evaluate the embedment stiffness of metal washers in bolted timber joints using a torque wrench. Formulas for th...
