Abstract The mortise-tenon joint is an important hub transmitting and distributing external loads for load-bearing components (beams, columns et al.) in the ancient-timber frame structure system. However, the conventional steel

rotates greatly, the anchoring failure of the screws will cause damage to the timber joint. To solve this problem,

horizontal flat steel is placed in the center of the joint, and the bolt is extended to the… More >
