What is the typical load duration used in designing wood structures? If awood beam is designed for use at a one-week event only, should the designer increase or decrease the allowable fiber stress relative to the allowable stress used for normal applications? How much increase or decrease?
Draw a graph to show the typical stress–strain curve for wood. On the graph,show the modulus of elasticity. State three different factors that affect thisrelationship.
If a wood beam is designed for use at 2 months event only, should the designer increase or
decrease the allowable stress relative to the allowable stress used for normal applications?
How much increase or decrease?
