Multiple Connections PSTS
Connecting Multiple Glulam & Solid Timber Members With PSTS 8mm Ø
Min 100mm end distance parallel to grain
Min 45mm edge distance perpendicular to grain
Min 100mm between fixings parallel to grain
Min 60mm between fixings perpendicular to grain
Pointside member
Headside member
The figures in table 1 & table 2 assume: 1. The load may be acting parallel or perpendicular to the grain.
2. Minimum pointside penetration of 25mm for Glulam members ( Table 1 ). 3. Minimum pointside penetration of 30mm for solid timber members (Table 2 ).
