Improved Stud Designs for Wood/Metal Joints
Load-transfer capacities and resistances to fatigue increased. Series of high-strength bonded-stud designs developed for joining laminated wood to metal. Test results for bonded-stud designs demonstrated joint strengths approaching 10,000 to 12,000 psi (69 to 83 MPa) in ultimate strength and 5,000 psi (34 MPa) in high cycle fatigue strength of wood/epoxy composite achieved.
