Dowel Bearing Strength and Bolted Connection Behavior of Oriented Strand Lumber
Oriented strand lumber (OSL) is a relatively new commercial wood composite product with limited research data available in the public domain. This project looked at two aspects of connection behavior in OSL. The first part of the study addressed the effects of strand geometry and level of strand orientation on dowel bearing strength of the composite material. The second part of the study involved evaluation of bolted connection performance in OSL. In particular, European yield model (EYM) equations and end distance requirements were evaluated for effectiveness in predicting connection performance. Dowel bearing strengths were determined for both the parallel to the strand orientation and the perpendicular to the strand orientation loading cases.
