Three-dimensional modeling of metal plate connected wood truss joints
This thesis presents theoretical and experimental studies of metal-plate-connected (MPC) wood truss joints under uni-directional tension or out-of-plane bending. A theoretical computer program, SAMPC, was developed based on finite element method (FEM). MPC joint models were constructed using SAMPC,...
