Keywords: timber structures, joint, beam, key.

Summary

Traditional joints used in the restoration of historic timber structures are not designed according to standards. The most widespread joint is a vertical splice skew joint with one or two keys. Unfortunately, the forces mutually acting on its separate parts are not known. It is only their limits that may be derived with some precision, but even this is very valuable for practice. Accurate values may be obtained from measurements or experiments.
