3-D finite element beam/connector model for a glulam dome cap
The purpose of this study is to model the beam/decking connectors (nails) of a glulam dome cap by beam/connector elements, and to analyze various dome cap models in order to investigate the potential of the beam/connector model to simulate the decking. Two- and three-dimensional beam/connector eleme...
