Determination of Bearing Capacity of Nail Joints in Timber-cement Boards

Abstract

The aim of this paper is in determination of nail bearing capacity in 4-nails joints of timber-cement boards of selected thicknesses bonded with middle solid wood (spruce) element on the base of destructive laboratory testing according to valid standards [1], [2], [3]. For the laboratory testing were selected 4-nails one-shear joints of cement-splinter boards and middle element made of solid wood.
