Analysis of the Brittle Failure and Design of Connections Loaded Perpendicular to Grain
The brittle failure behaviour and the design of double shear connections with mechanical fasteners loaded perpendicular to grain are analysed using experimental and numerical test series and the fracture mechanics methods. The results observed define the important geometry parameters which influence the load carrying capacity. Based on the failure criteria determined for double shear connections, a new design approach are proposed and compared to current international design standards. The correlation between the new design proposal and the experimental test results done or published confirms the methods used and the failure criteria determined.
