Strength of Fasteners in Parallel-Laminated Veneer.

Abstract

Phase I of this study shows that the effects of lamina thickness and the degree of lathe checking could not be detected in either nail withdrawal or lateral loading. In Phase II, Parallel Laminated Veneer (PLV) from 3/16- and 4/10-inch Douglas-fir shows no severe reduction in fastening strength for bolts, staples, split rings, and truss plates. The only exception is for truss plates on 4/10-inch PLV.
