Nailed plate connector for glued-laminated timbers
Performance of metal-to-wood fastener employing specially designed and hardened steel nails was determined for compressive and tensile loading; nail length, nail spacing, fixity of nailhead in plate, form of shank, and end- and edge-distances have pronounced effects on lateral strength and stiffness; where fastenings contained large numbers of nails, strength on per nail basis was not constant but was largely dependent on number of nails aligned in direction of applied load; in comparison with commonly used bolted shear plate connectors, nailed plate fastenings of equivalent strength were definitely superior in stiffness properties.
