A semi-destructive tension method for evaluating the strength and stiffness of clear wood zones of structural timber elements in-service
The paper presents a new semi destructive method for obtaining a prediction of the tension parallel to the grain properties of clear wood of structural timber members. This method is less intrusive than other existing methods and consists in extracting four small specimens along the length of the ti...
