Abstract This paper presents experimental testing on glulam beam–column moment-resisting connections using glued-in rods (GiRod) and compares the results with model predictions. Three connection geometries and varying numbers of rods and member size were tested and compared. This experiment will be helpful in grounding research by bringing in new experimental results and proposing an innovative experimentation method. Experimental results showed the high efficiency of glued-in rod connections to transfer loads and bending moment between spruce pine glulam timber members. The observed limit states of the connections were failed steel rods in ductile tensile yielding or wood splitting around the anchorage installed perpendicularly to the grain in the column. It was found that the tested connections behaved as a semirigid moment-resisting connection and exhibited a ductile failure mode when wood splitting was avoided by design. Comparison of experimental results with model predictions showed good agreement, with a deviation under 15% for the moment capacity of the connection. |
