Erratum to: Numerical damage prediction in dowel connections of wooden structures [PDF]
My;Rk 1⁄4 0:3 fu;k d where My;Rk is the fastener yield moment, fu;k is the characteristic tensile strength, and d is the bolt diameter. Because of this error, one result is wrong in Table 4 (see below), from where the authors claimed that the analytical procedure of EC 5 [1] leads to an 82.7 % underestimation of the connection strength with respect to ...

Lateral holding strength of wooden dowel, screw and ready-to-assemble joints (RTA joints) constructed of Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) [PDF]
In the present study the strength of different kinds of wooden dowels, screws, and ready-to-assemble joints (RTA joints) used in medium density fiberboards (MDF) were assessed and compared for their lateral shear strength. The T-form specimens (20 cm × 8

Hydrodynamic and ecological effects of engineered logjams: Insights from field observations
Drone imaging, LSPIV and electrofishing data quantified restoration effects of engineered logjam at the Emme River (Switzerland). Placement and discharge shaped flow: Side jams created longer wakes, centre jams stronger mixing; and lower discharge intensified gap velocities, whereas wake length remained stable.
