Abstract

The multiple shear connection with slotted-in steel plates and dowel-type self-drilling is a very efficient timber connections for frame and truss. It is used in practice, due to its high capacity and faster construction method. However, when the complex connection and many parameters affect the bearing capacity, instead of a ductile mechanism, brittle failure may govern its capacity. To achieve the desired working connection, the relationship between the connection configuration parameters is established but no standard specifically with this kind of connection. A series of parameters changes affecting the bearing capacity of the connection are given. Calculate and compare with many previous research methods in ductile failure modes to assess their prediction accuracy and optimal connection. A model for the optimization of the ductile failure mode for the multiple shear connections with slotted-in steel plates and dowel-type self-drilling is then proposed.
