NSCP Specs:
Compression at Angle to Grain:
The allowable unit stress in compression at an angle of load to grain between 0 to 90 shall be
computed from the Hankinson Formula as follows:
Fn
Fpa Fpe
Fpa sin 2 Fpe cos 2
In which Fn is the allowable unit stress acting perpendicular to the incline surface, F pa is the allowable
unit stress in compression parallel to the grain, Fpe is the allowable unit stress in compression perpendicular to
is the angle between the direction of the load and the direction of grain.
(CE Board May 2012) The truss shown in is made from Guijo 100mm x 150mm.
The load on the truss is 20 kN. Neglect friction.
Allowable stresses for Guijo:
Compression parallel to grain = 11
MPa
Compression perpendicular to grain
= 5 MPa
Shear parallel to grain = 1 MPa
Shear longitudinal for joints = 1.45

a. Determine the minimum value of x.
b. Determine the minimum value of y in mm.
c. What is the axial stress on the member AC in MPa?

SEC. 3.3 SIZE OF STRUCTURAL MEMBER
Sizes of lumber and structural glued-laminated timber refered to in this code are normal sizes.
Computations to determine the required sizes of member shall be based on the net dimensions (actual sizes)
and not the nominal sizes. The rough size of lumber shall not be less than the nominal size and the reduction in
face dimensions of dressed lumber shall not more than 6mm of the nominal size.

A timber beam having a simple span of 4m carries a total load including its own
weight of 10 kN/m. It has a width of 200mm and a depth of 260mmm, used dressed
dimensions by reducing its dimensions by 10mm. The wooden section is made up of
80% grade Apitong. (Use table on figure TM-6)

6. A wooden mast 15m high tapers linearly from 100mm diameter at the free top to
250mm diameter at the fixed base.
a. If a horizontal force P is applied at the top to break the mast causing a maximum
direct stress, where will be the mast break?
b. If the breaking strength of the wood is 35 MPa, find the breaking force P.

A timber wall is 50 mm wide, 150 mm deep and having a height of 3.50m is
assumed to be hinged at top and bottom (use k=1.0). It is subjected to uniformly
distributed load of 300 N/m acting along the weaker axis of its entire height. The wall
is made-up of Apitong wood stresses are shown in the TM-6 (use 80% stress grade).
To be safe, the actual stresses should not exceed the allowable stresses. Also, the
wall must be checked using the formula:
