Comparison of creep/duration of load performance in bending of Parallam® parallel strand lumber to machine stress rated lumber
A comparison of the creep/duration of load (DOL) performance of a new structural wood composite material called Parallam® parallel strand lumber (PSL) to two grades of machine-stress-rated (HSR) Douglas-fir lumber is presented in this thesis. Evaluation of the creep/DOL performance was made on nomin...
