CODE OF PRACTICE FOR STRUCTURAL USE OF TIMBER : PART 5 : TIMBER JOINTS
MS 544 : PART 5 : 2001
Status : Withdrawn
Format : PDF

This part applies to joints in solid timber fabricated with mechanical fasteners described by Malaysian Standard. These include joints fabricated with the following mechanical fasteners:

....Read more a) nails;
b) wood screws;
c) bolts;
d) coach screws;
e) split-ring connectors; and
f) shear-plate connectors.

NOTES:
1. Design rules for specialised and patented mechanical fasteners and for variants of conventional fasteners are not included in this code.
2. This Standard doe.s not specifically cover glued timber-to-timber or timber-to plywood connections as occurred in fabricated components such as stressed skin panels or plywood webbed beams. In such cases, joint design can be based on the timber components in the connection, provided that the joint is fabricated using a rigid, durable adhesive. Phenolic type adhesives meet these requirements. The design of fabricated components comprising glued connections is therefore based on the fact that with correct bonding practice and quality control, a joint is developed
in which the adhesive bond strength and durability will be superior to the components comprising the joint. Reference may be made to AS 1720.1: 1988, Appendix D2 for information on methods for assessing the deformation of joints.
