Tension Perpendicular to Grain - Conclusion
• Tension perpendicular to grain strength very low• Avoid tension perp. to grain stresses whenever possible• Members with tension perp. to grain stresses are:
– Double tapered, curved and pitch cambered beams– Notched members, members with holes or cross connctions
• Tension perp. to grain stresses also develop with changing moisture content
• Possible reinforcements are: Self-tapping screws with continuous thread, drilled or glued-in rods, plywood / LVL…
• Proposal: reinforcements should be designed to carry full tension perp. to grain stresses (cracked tension perp. to grain zone)
