Tensile strength and performance of the INDUO®-heavy-timber connector in combination with structural composite lumber and Douglas fir

The INDUO-connection is a new steel-to-wood joint for highly loaded heavy-timber structures. Embedded in the end-grain of laminated timber beams, the special INDUOconnector is designed to transfer axial and transverse loads. Due to the weaker strength properties of solid wood perpendicular to the...
