摘要：

A small series of joints was examined to determine whether toothed metal connector plates (truss plates) could be successfully used to connect creosote treated wood members. Three types of joints, one with untreated wood and two with treated wood, were load-tested to qualitatively determine if the treatment affected either the strength or stiffness of the joints. The creosote treatment actually resulted in either similar or increased joint capacity and stiffness when compared to untreated wood. The results of this pilot study indicate that the use of metal connector plates in creosote treated wood may be feasible.
