Glulam connections assembled with screws in different installation angles

Abstract: Self-tapping screws are the recognized state-of-the-art in fastener technology for timber structures. Combining fasteners of different stiffness, such as self-tapping screws with different installation angles, can be advantageous to simultaneously achieve high connection stiffness and duct...
