This video shows the bending failure of a simply supported glulam beam arranged with the grain perpendicular to the beam axis. Learning Outcomes: Viewers will gain an improved understanding of: The strength properties of timber The influence of grain orientation
This video shows the bending failure of a simply supported, Class C24 softwood beam arranged with the grain parallel to the beam axis. The test specimen is free of defects. Learning Outcomes: Viewers will gain an improved understanding of: The
This video shows the bending failure of a simply supported, Class C24 softwood beam arranged with the grain parallel to the beam axis. In this test, the specimen has a defect (or knot) near the bottom of the beam. Learning
