“steel-to-timber” connections

Nowadays design of timber buildings and constructions growth up. It is connected with the dissemination of eco-technologies, efficient energy-saving buildings, rapid constructing, inexpensive solutions and addicting to smart utilization after the expiration of exploitation period. Timber connections are the very important factor, that influence on technological aspects while construction. Just simplicity and reliability of timber joints makes this choice reasonable and justified. One of the most shared timber joints is “steel-to-timber” connections using metal dowel fasteners (e.g nails).
