Influence of elevated temperature on glued-in steel rods for CLT elements

Structural bonding technology has proven to be an economically and attractive connection process in timber engineering. Connections and reinforcements with glued-in rods have been used for many years. Glued-in rods (GiR) are an effective way to connect timber elements from both load-bearing capacity/stiffness and aesthetic points of view. The load-bearing capacity of GiR is significantly influenced by the temperature of the adhesive. Although GiR are widely used in timber structures, there are still no unified European test standards, product standards, or design equations for such connections. This work presents an experimental program for obtaining pull-out strength for GiR inserted to Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) when subjected to both ambient and elevated temperatures. Within the experimental investigation, the total number of 36 specimens were tested at ambient temperature and 10 specimens at elevated temperature
