The aim Qf thisresearch is to identify the structural performance of bracket complexes used in traditional timber structures . Static vertical and lateral loading tests and shaking table tests were performed on four types Qf bracket complexes with the most fundamental forms . A hysteresis model of the bracket complexes was proposed based on the results of the static lateral loading tests .

In this paper, moment resisting behavior of mortise-tenon joint with dowel is examined. At first, bending tests for mortise-tenon joint are conducted. A hundred and eight specimens are tested, and their parameters are dimension of tenon, post, beam and dowel and tree species of members. In addition, evaluation rule for moment resisting performance of mortise-tenon joint is proposed. It is based on the result of local compression test of wooden materials. Moment -rotation relationship of connection can be calculated by solving simplified equation of equilibrium.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
