Abstract
The paper looks at alternative round timber pole connections that make monoplanar
structures and trusses a possibility. Three different systems are discussed
and where test results are available, these are compared with theoretical values. It
is shown how the performance of a connection can be improved by changing the
failure mode of the connector and the timber.
