A Finite Element Analysis of Bearing Resistance of Timber Loaded through a Steel Plate

Decrease projected length of bolts due to bending deformation in timber joints compresses the steel washers onto timber member and increases lateral resistance of the joints. As this lateral strength increase primarily depend on bearing characteristics of timber beneath the steel washers, a finite e...
