INTRODUCTION
Materials used for joinery
Glue Fasteners

Principles governing construction of joints

Surface of joint Even distribution of pressure Each abutting surface Normal to line of pressure & take maximum compressive stress Fasteners proportioned for equal strength in relation to the members Fastenings should avoid shear / crushing failure Joint should be as simple as possible Cutting & placing of joints make minimum weakness of members

CLASSIFICATION OF JOINTS
STRENGTH OF TIMBER JOINTS DEPENDS ON
Area of gluing The way in which one piece of timber encases the other The finishing work

Lengthening joints Employed to extend the length of a member by joining Widening joints Employed to extend the width of the boards/planks Angle joints Employed to connect the members at ends or at right angles Oblique shouldered joints Employed to connect members at an angle Bearing joints Employed to give sufficient strength at the junction meeting at 90 Framing joints Employed to construct doors, windows, ventilators & partitions
