Calculation of metal to timber connections with t ≥ d as thick steel plate using screws with flat head support. (Also for large hole tolerances.)

Higher resistance by removing the limitation of the rope effect in shear connections.

RAPID^® and RAPID^® FT with HSP permitted in hardwood without pre-drilling. (Observe maximum the maximum penetration depth!)

Mechanical model for determining the (spring) stiffness of a connection with partial and full thread screws, as well as parameters for head pull-through slip modulus.
