Abstract:In traditional Chinese wooden structural buildings, mortise-tenon joints are used as connection nodes. Under the erosion effects from wind and rain, such nodes are prone to aging and loosening. If theyare not tracked and repaired in time, they are likely to cause structural damage when they encounter sudden loads such as earthquakes. In accordance with engineering practice, one mortise-tenon joint specimen with a penetrating straight tenon and one mortise-tenon joint specimen without a penetrating tenon were c… Show more
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.
