An investigation on the behaviour of Minangkabau timber roof truss / Monaleza Zainuddin

An important application of the modulus of elasticity of timber is in structural timber design calculations. It is used as a means of estimating the deflection of flexural members and as a parameter in calculating the buck ling strength of timber members. A study is made on the realistic value of th...
