“…Although Kühne [22] p.42 accurately defined how to derive the CPG strength values, he did not apply any off-set and, without reporting the load deformation curves, his elaborate test results also cannot be taken into account. This is why many sources mentioned in [6] are not used for this more accurate analysis. Many other sources originating from the US like Basta [23], report tests that were carried out in accordance with ASTM-D-143 [2].…”

Many timber structures, however, rely on this property especially in bearings that occur frequently in building practice. The linear elastic-plastic behaviour of structural timber loaded perpendicular to grain has been a problematic issue for decades which is reflected in the differences between the prediction models in structural design codes over the world. This article concentrates on the evaluation of the strength predictive ability of three of the latest bearing models having an empirical, semiempirical or physical background. On the bases of a large database of over 1000 test results covering eight practical load cases, it is shown that the accuracy and consistency of the physical model is the best, which makes it a potential candidate for the new generation timber design codes.

“…2. Evaluation of additional tests from many literary sources added more credibility to this model, Leijten et al [5]. It was concluded that the stress dispersion model is superior to any of the previously published empirical models and a potential candidate for introduction in future structural design codes.…”

Resumen-En numerosos detalles estructurales de construcciones realizadas con madera, el esfuerzo de compresión transversal a las fibras juega un papel muy importante y en muchas ocasiones condiciona su diseño. En este trabajo se analiza el comportamiento a compresión de piezas de madera de pino silvestre de pequeña escuadría sometidas a un esfuerzo de compresión transversal a las fibras y se han obtenido unos valores medios para la tensión de rotura y el módulo de elasticidad de 4,20 MPa y 305,86 MPa, respectivamente.Palabras clave-Madera; construcción; esfuerzo de compresión; deformación.Abstract-In many structural details of buildings made of wood, the transverse compression stress to the fibers plays a very important role and often determines its design. In this work, the compression behavior of small pine wood pieces subjected to a cross -compressive stress to the fibers is analyzed and mean values for the tensile strength and the modulus of elasticity of 4,20 MPa and 305.86 MPa, respectively.
