will be as strong as a single timber of equivalent size.
Two pieces of timber are squared at the ends and fitted together. Two

fastened on either side of the pieces to be joined.
- This splice is made by cutting half the thickness of each piece to the
required length and putting he halved sections together.
Halved Splice
- the halve splice is better for direct compression and when combined
with scabs or fishplates, may be used where there is some tension.
- This is a modification of the compression halved splice.
Square Splice - it has an extra notch to keep it from slipping and is usually used in
combination with scabs or fishplates.

Fishplate
with nails or bolts.
A type of half-lapped scarf joint; may be reinforced with a fishplate; esp

Square Splice
used to resist tension.
- Are metal devices used to provide added strength at bolted joints.
- they are metal connectors used to join timber in heavy construction;

Timber Connectors
usually the connector has a series of sharp teeth which dig into the wood
as a bolt is tightened
- A ring shaped metal insert placed precut circular grooves and held by
bolts; used as a timber connector.
Split-ring Connector
- Made in sizes of 2 - 1/2, 4, 6 in. in diameter
- They are used for heavy construction.
- These are toothed and corrugated.
- They are made in 2, 2-5/8, and 4 in. diameter.
Toothed Plates and Toothed Rings

- They are used between two timber frames for comparatively light
construction.
One side is clawed and other smooth. They are used either singly, in
Claw Plates
JOINERY, SPLICES and CONNECTORS timber to metal connections, or in pairs in timber to timber connections.
- A special round plate inserted in the face of a timber; used to develop

shear resistance in wood-to-metal or wood-to-wood joint.
Shear Plates
- designed to provide greater load-carrying capacity in shear than can
be achieved by a bolt alone.
