This paper presents results of a research programme investigating the mechanical properties of self-tapping screws and nails in wood. The programme consisted of deformation-controlled tests to determine embedment strength, withdrawal strength, pull-through strength, bending capacity of individual screws, shear strength of screwed and nailed wood–wood connections, and shear strength of screwed wood–steel connections. All test specimens showed ductile behaviour. Based on the results from the first four types of tests, a simple calculation model for the shear strength of screwed wood–wood and wood–steel connections was set up and compared with test results from the last two types of tests. The calculation model took dowel action and friction (wood–wood and wood–steel) into account and showed excellent agreement with the test results.Key words: connections, screws, nails, shear strength, embedment strength, withdrawal strength, pull-through strength.

This paper investigates feasibility of reinforcement method for fractured granite of slab type and beam members used as components of old stone masonry pagodas. Investigation of the effect of reinforcement to flexural and shear strength is performed using the concept for the high strength concrete since the mechanical properties of granite are similar to properties of high strength of concrete. In this experimental program two types of notched specimens are intended for failures with shear and flexural cracks. Intended fractured specimens are reinforced by metal rods, so called pinning method. The rods are inserted in holes and bonded with inorganic cement. The metal rods are supposed to transfer forces by tensile resistance in flexure and dowel action in shear. Increase in shear and flexural capacities and ductile behavior after sudden yielding of the metal rods are observed. The final failure cracks in reinforced specimens occurred different from interfaces along the original cracks. Locations of metal rods, their numbers, and construction of anchored rod are main variables to be examined for guidelines for reinforcement methods.

Abstract The existing models for the conversion and design of polymer gears are only valid for involute gears. This research was focused on S-gears, a specific type of gear profile which has more favorable contact conditions and greater root thickness when compared to involute gears. S-gears design is currently based on tests, experience, and the use of numerical simulations. Due to the lack of a simple calculation model for designing S-gears, there is a limited number of applications in practice. The goal was to set up a model for the evaluation of the root and flank load-carrying capacity of polymer S-gears. The VDI 2736 guideline was taken as the basis of our conversion model for polymer S-gears. With the introduction of new factors for the calculation of root and flank stress, the VDI 2736 model was upgraded to take into account the specific shape of the S-gear profile. In addition, a model for designing steel S-gears was set up.
