Determination of shear modulus of wood joists from torsion tests and relationship with modulus of elasticity (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khokhar, A., & Zhang, J. (2018, August). Determination of shear modulus of wood joists from torsion tests and relationship with modulus of elasticity. Presented at World Conference on Timber Engineering, Seoul, Republic of Korea

This paper presents the work that was undertaken to use torsion tests to evaluate the shear modulus of wood joists. The relationship of the shear modulus with modulus of elasticity, obtained from bending tests, was examined. Testing standard EN408 h...
