Bending behaviour of dowelled mortise and tenon joints in Kempas / Rohana Hassan, Azmi Ibrahim and Zakiah Ahmad

Mortise and tenon are commonly used as timber connections between beam and column with enhancement by pultruded dowel. At present the data on the performance of mortise and tenon joints manufactured using Malaysian tropical timber is not available. Therefore there is a need to provide such data for...
