The purpose of this investigation was to gain a better understanding into the mechanical behavior of the API 8 Round casing connection, when subjected to service loads of assembly interference, tension and internal pressure. The connection must provide both structural and sealing functions and these functions were evaluated by several methods. Part I discusses the methods of analysis, which include hand calculations using strength of materials, finite element method via unthreaded and threaded models, and experimental analysis using strain gages. Comparisons of all three methods are made for stresses and show that the finite element method accurately models connection behavior.

ResumenEn numerosos detalles estructurales de construcciones realizadas con madera, el esfuerzo de compresión transversal a las fibras juega un papel muy importante y en muchas ocasiones condiciona su diseño. En este trabajo se analiza el comportamiento a compresión de piezas de madera de pino silvestre de pequeña escuadría sometidas a un esfuerzo de compresión transversal a las fibras y se han obtenido unos valores medios para la tensión de rotura y el módulo de elasticidad de 4,20 MPa y 305,86 MPa, respectivamente.AbstractIn many structural details of buildings made of wood, the transverse compression stress to the fibers plays a very important role and often determines its design. In this work, the compression behavior of small pine wood pieces subjected to a cross - compressive stress to the fibers is analyzed and mean values for the tensile strength and the modulus of elasticity of 4,20 MPa and 305.86 MPa, respectively.
