Description

At present, moment-resisting connections for glulam constructions are widely constituted as drift-pin joints with insert-steel gusset plates, as well as bolted joints. These joints consume much steel and require complex design calculations. Therefore, Lagscrewbolts® were developed as a simple and economical timber connector. Lagscrewbolts have a lagscrew type thread on the outside surface and are threaded like a nut on the inside at one end of the shank.<br>In this study, a series of tests were conducted to clarify the effects of lead hole diameter, embedment depth, embedment direction and edge distance on the pull-out resistance of Lagscrewbolts. Lagscrewbolts having 30 mm top thread diameter and 25 mm root diameter were used. For timber members, Douglas-far glulam of E105-F300 grade were used.<br>The results obtained were as follows :<br>1) The optimum lead hole diameter was 27 mm.<br>2) Maximum pull-out load (Pmax) vs. embedment depths, and slip modulus (Ks) vs. embedment depths showed positive correlations. These relationships were almost linear.<br>3) The maximum pull-out load (Pmax) parallel to the grain was 0.75 times of that for perpendicular to the grain, and the pull-out slip modulus (Ks) parallel to the grain was 3 to 6 times of that for perpendicular to the grain.<br>4) The suitable edge-distance was thought to be more than 1.5d (d is the thread top diameter of the Lagscrewbolt).
