Shear strength properties of hybrid (hinoki cypress and Japanese cedar) cross-laminated timber

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2021
In this study, the out-of-plane shear strength of hybrid cross-laminated timber (CLT) with outer layers of hinoki (hinoki cypress, Chamaecyparis obtusa) and inner layers of sugi (Japanese cedar, Cryptomeria japonica) is investigated for four different ...

Evolution of Peak Shear Strength of Rock Fractures Under Conditions of Repetitive Dry and Wet Cycling

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The degradation of shear mechanical properties of rock fracture surfaces was determined after applying multiple dry-wet cycles. Artificially fractured feldspathic sandstone specimens were soaked in chemical solutions with pH values of 2, 7, and 12 for 3,

An Advanced Shear Strength Criterion for Rock Discontinuities Considering Size and Low Shear Rate

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The shear strength of the rock discontinuities under different shear rates is of great importance to evaluate the stability of rock mass engineering, which is remarkably influenced by the size effects induced by both the length and the undulated ...

Effects of the presence or absence and the position of glued edge joints in the lamina on the shear strength of glued laminated timber

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2022
Four kinds of glued laminated timber were produced (i.e., one with a glued edge-joint and the other three with nonglued edge joints) in the lamina at different positions toward the depth direction.

Improved Shear Strength Equation for Concrete Wide Beams

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
An improved shear strength equation is proposed that considers transverse reinforcement spacing and support conditions for concrete wide beams. Eighteen specimens were fabricated to examine the influence of transverse reinforcement spacing, the number of

Modified Equation of Shear Strength with Respect to Saturation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Unsaturated soil shear strength is a significant topic in geotechnical engineering. The measurement of unsaturated soil properties such as shear strength and matric suction could be costly, hard, time-consuming, and often impractical to obtain.

Influence of shear rate on the soil's shear strength

open access: yesEnvironmental engineering, 2021
One of the most important mechanical properties is shear strength. It is conditioned by the value of the maximum shear stress that the soil can withstand before failure. Exceeding the shear strength causes one particle to slide next to another, causing the failure of soil.

Shear Strength Prediction Equations and Experimental Study of High Strength Steel Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Beams with Different Shear Span-to-Depth Ratios

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Conducting research on steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) beams without stirrups, particularly the SFRC beams with high-strength concrete (HSC) and high-strength steel (HSS) reinforcing bars is essential due to the limitation of test results of high ...

The temperature-dependent shear strength of ice-filled joints in rock mass considering the effect of joint roughness, opening and shear rates [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
Global warming causes many rockfall activities in alpine mountains, especially when ice-filled joints in the rock mass become thawed. The warming and thawing of frozen soils and intact rocks have been widely studied in the past several decades; however ...
