In Eurocode 5, the stiffness equation for bolted steel-wood-steel is stated as a function of wood density and fastener diameter only. In this research, an experimental study on various configurations of tested bolted steel-wood-steel (SWS) connections has been undertaken to predict the initial stiff...
