Fracture of parallel strand lumber (PSL) under impact loading
Abstract The behavior of Parallel Strand Lumber (PSL) subjected to impact loading was studied. Eighteen 100 mm ×100 mm×650 mm flexural specimens were tested under both static and impact loading conditions. It was found that the failure modes of PSL were similar under both loading conditions with the specimens failing mostly by a combination of shear and flexural modes. PSL also exhibited stress rate sentitive characteristics; however, the rate sensitivity was affected by the localized damage at the contact surface.
