Performance of Nailed Gusset Joints in Ridged Timber Portals (1991)
Journal Article
Kermani, A., & Lee, B. S. (1991). Performance of Nailed Gusset Joints in Ridged Timber Portals. International Journal of Forest Engineering, 3(1), 13-28. https://doi.org/10.1080/08435243.1991.10702630

Abstract The structural behaviour and performance of nailed plywood gusset knee joints of timber portal frames are investigated. An analytical study has shown, and experimental study has confirmed, that the behaviour of the joints in terms of streng...

A vapour phase preservative treatment of manufactured wood based board materials (1989)
Journal Article
Murphy, R. J., & Turner, P. (1989). A vapour phase preservative treatment of manufactured wood based board materials. Wood science and technology, 23(3), 273-279. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf00367740

The preservative treatment of four different wood based board materials using an esterified borate applied in the vapour phase was investigated. Under optimum conditions complete impregnation via the board faces was achieved in all boards treated. Bo...
