Quantitative assessment of adhesive effects on partial and full compressive strength of LVL in the edge-wise direction by Ryutaro Sudo, Kohta Miyamoto, Hirofumi Ido

“…The results suggested the following: (i) Mechanism I had minimal impact, as the fiber direction and the presence of additional length showed strong and slight effects on the adhesive effect, respectively; (ii) Mechanism II contributed to preventing crack propagation and altering the relationships among mechanical properties, with its effectiveness increasing as the adhesive weight increased; and (iii) Mechanism III functioned as a crossband effect, reinforcing weaknesses caused by the slope of the grain and the angle of the annual rings.…”
