Description
Summary:Mechanical joint and adhesive joint are the two most common types of timber connections. In the case of timber construction, bonded-in rods offer a long-term, aesthetically acceptable alternative to some of the more conventional steel moment connections. Bonded-in rod connections in timber need many desirable attributes inefficiency, manufacture, performance, aesthetics and cost. This paper presents pull-out experimental testing for glued-in rod made of Mengkulang (tarrietia javanica) glulam joints. Hundred and seven (107) specimens were prepared, each with a single glued-in rod parallel and perpendicular to the grain. The steel treaded rod with a diameter of 12 mm, 16 mm and 20 mm with three numbers of adhesive (Sikadur-30) thicknesses of 2 mm, 3 mm and 4 mm were used in this experiment. The pull-out tests observations were on the effects of adhesive thickness, parallel and perpendicular grain directions and modes of failure of the specimens. The result obtained that 4 mm adhesive thickness was the strongest and parallel specimens showed better results than the perpendicular specimens. The pull-out failure modes are affected by the selected factors, i.e. the adhesive thickness, rod diameter and grain directions. Most of the specimens show failures in the timber besides the adhesive to timber interface.
