Effect of Different-Diameter Wooden Pins on Mechanical Properties of Triangular Girder Trusses
With the expanding application of lightweight wooden structures in modern construction, the load-bearing capacity of ordinary triangular single-span wooden trusses limits the applicability of lightweight wooden structures. As a result, triangular multi-span wooden trusses have emerged to replace single-span wooden trusses. In practice, multi-span wooden trusses are composed of multiple single-span lightweight wooden trusses, with connections between members using metal plates, a field that has been relatively well researched. However, connections between spans are primarily made with nails in actual engineering, and there has been little research on the use of wooden pins to connect multi-span wooden trusses. To study the mechanical performance of multi-span wooden trusses connected by wooden pins, this paper innovatively combines existing equipment with a self-designed pulley assembly device to conduct a continuous static full-scale loading test on double-span wooden trusses connected by wooden pins of three different diameters. We comprehensively evaluate which type of wooden pin is more suitable for triangular multi-span wooden trusses. The results indicate that the 16 mm diameter wooden pin provides the best energy dissipation performance for connected beam trusses. The 20 mm diameter wooden pin offers the best performance stability. The 20 mm diameter wooden pin also demonstrates a good load-bearing capacity and resistance to deformation. Overall, the 20 mm diameter wooden pin exhibits the best connection performance in triangular beam trusses.
