Abstract: Abstract The consideration of brittle failure of timber connections requires an adequate evaluation of the capacity of the involved failure planes. Their correct geometrical definition is therefore of utmost importance to obtain an accurate assessment… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Timber connections may collapse in a brittle or in a ductile mode. The calculation models of timber joints are mainly focused on ductile failure mode, since it has been traditionally assumed that brittle failure… read more here.
