In this tutorial, the Simulation wood-steel plate connection with a nail under tension load in Abaqus has been investigated. The steel plate and nail are modeled as three-dimensional solid parts. The wooden plate also is a three-dimensional part. You can see a figure of the assembled parts below
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a prefabricated building material that is relatively new to the United States and North America. It consists of no less than three layers of graded, dimensional lumber glued alternating longitudinal and transverse layers to create a panel that can be used for various building applications (walls, floors, etc.). Panels are always constructed in an odd number of layers with the outer layers oriented longitudinally. One use for CLT panels is as shear walls to resist lateral loads due to wind or earthquakes. When CLT shear walls are subjected to lateral loading, tension (uplift) and shear demands are imposed on the fasteners at the base of the panel. Previous research has investigated the performance of fasteners under each of these loading demands
To model material for the nail and plate, the steel material with elastic-plastic and damage behavior is selected. The wood also is modeled as an anisotropic elastic material with damage behavior. The dynamic explicit step is appropriate for this type of analysis. The surface-to-surface and ideal contacts are used for all part contacts. The proper mesh and boundaries are assigned to all parts
After the simulation, all results such as wood damage and failure, stress, strain, force-displacement diagram, and others are available. You can see some figures for the results below
