Characteristics of the break as a function of the butting angle α.
| | Butting angle α (°) | Rupture of specimens bonded with adhesive (PRF) | Observation |
| | Massive specimen | Wood breaking | Reduced part of the specimen | | 15° | Adhesive failure | Total failure of the abutment (adhesive) | | 30° | Adhesive failure | Failure of the abutment with little wood detached from the section | | 45° | Adhesive/mixed failure | Breakage with detachment of small pieces of wood | | 60° | Adhesive/mixed failure | Significant breakage of wood fibers | | 75° | Adhesive/mixed failure | Significant breakage of wood fibers |
