“…Metal-plate-connection wood trusses are widely used in civil buildings as roof and floor systems. Ling et al (2022) explored the simulation model and analysis software for predicting the performance of metal-plate-connected wood joints. Yeoh et al (2004) investigated the effect of metal plate connected joints on strength properties of rubberwood LVL.…”

“…Developed countries have extensive experience and expertise in wood roof systems, especially in Canada, where long-term experiments and research have been conducted on wood truss roof systems. However, China's modern wood structures are in the stage of revival, and there is relatively limited accumulated experience in wood truss roof systems (Li et al 2022). In practical projects, the use of asymmetric trusses may be less common, but they are nevertheless indispensable.…”
Compared with natural wood, laminated veneer lumber has the characteristics of high strength, flexible specifications, excellent stability, and good economy. In order to study the bearing capacity of LVL trusses, the mechanical properties of LVL materials were tested. The static load test was carried out by using 3 pieces of LVL truss, and the load-deflection relationship, load-strain relationship, bearing capacity and failure mode of LVL trusses were studied. Based on the simplified joint analysis method, the metal plate connection and bolted truss were analyzed, and the bearing capacity calculation formula was developed. The results show that the upper chord instability is the main failure mode for large-span light LVL truss. A simplified formula for bearing capacity of LVL truss was proposed, and the predicted results were in good agreement with the experimental results. Finally, an application example of LVL truss engineering design and construction is briefly introduced. The research can provide technical support for the promotion and application of LVL truss of lightweight poplar wood.

“…While tooth plate connection is mainly used for connections in light wood truss structure, which is characterized by simplicity and high construction efficiency. However, the tooth connection cannot effectively withstand the pressure, and the durability of the connections is usually poor due to the bare air leakage of the tooth plate [1]. The two most popular connection forms, the bolt connection and pin connection have the high bearing capacity and deformation capability.…”
Complex and precise 3D microfabrication technology is the basis for the development of fields including chip‐based bioassay, microelectronic communication, and micromachine manufacturing. Among them, assembled 3D structures provide new ideas to the development of 3D integration of 2D components due to their convenience and high efficiency. In this work, a micro‐casting/assembly technique that can create 3D micro devices is provided with bismuth‐based liquid metal (LM). The liquid metal is first injected into a micro‐mold. The micro‐mold is made by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and porous polycarbonate track‐etched (PCTE) membranes. The mold is then treated with ethanol and deionized water to release the inner injected 2D micro metal components. The effect of each parameter on the generated metal structures is experimentally validated and a LM line with a minimum width of 10 µm is also obtained. For making more functional components, the 2D structures are assembled into 3D. To demonstrate the potential of the technique, reconfigurable micro‐antennas and 3D flow sensors are fabricated and tested at the end of this work, demonstrating potential applications for the micro casting/assembly technology.
