Analysis of the Law of Joint Deformation for Grouted Mortise-Tenon Joint

Table 1

Experimental cases.

Experimental casesDifferent axial forcesSingle-tenon joint: 500 kN, 1,600 kN, & 2,000 kN
Double-tenon joint: 500 kN, 1,000 kN, & 1,250 kN
Different ranges of groutinga (tenon & mortise only), b (60 mm externally expanded from tenon & mortise), c (100 mm externally expanded from tenon & mortise)
Different grouting materialsModified epoxy resin, pure epoxy resin, cement-based material, no grouting
Different tenon lengthsTenon length: 95 mm, tenon length: 195 mm
Different typesDouble-tenon joint (is there an auxiliary pretightening device) & long single-tenon joint
Contents to be collected in testsDeformation meters record the joint deformation.
