Abstract
An investigation of the dynamic and static fatique of
finger-jointed beams in bending was carried out. Results were
obtained for five different frequencies from static loading to a
load cycle period of two minutes. A total of seven series were
long-term tested and five series were short-term tested. The
results show that time to failure decreases with increasing
frequency of load cycles. The results were modelled with respect
to both time and number of cycles to failure using a theory
developed at BKM. The model showed good agreement with test
results.
