Predicting the strength of notched wood beams
A simple expression using a critical fillet hoop stress (CFHS) model was derived to predict the capacity of a simply supported wood beam with a notch on the tension face between the supports. The derivation used the hypothesis that cracking initiates when the hoop stress tangent to the free surface...
