Abstract
When wood materials are used for a mechanical structure, the fatigue strength should be estimated due to repeated loads they receive. This paper reveals that the methods to calculate allowable stresses along with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Architectural Institute of Japan (AIJ) can take the strength reduction due to fatigue into account because the ASTM/AIJ allowable stresses against the static strength closely resemble the fatigue limit against the wood static strength.
