Description

The aim of this work is to present an approach for wood‐wood‐wood (W‐W‐W) connections design in double shear at ambient and high temperatures, using dowelled connectors. For each situation, all calculations will be performed to determine the cross‐section and the number of fasteners. A procedure will be presented to calculate the load carrying capacity per shear plane and per steel fastener, using a glued laminated in birch W‐W‐W timber GL28h.
