Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 10984-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 165, Timber structures.
ISO 10984 consists of the following parts, under the general title Timber structures — Dowel-type fasteners:
⎯ Part 1: Determination of yield moment
⎯ Part 2: Determination of embedding strength

ISO 10984-2:2009(E)
Introduction
Dowel-type fasteners are those mechanical fasteners that are most widely used for timber structures. Their
characteristics, such as yield moment, have a great effect on the mechanical performance of joints made with
dowel-type fasteners under loads.
The purpose of this part of ISO 10984 is to define methods to measure the embedding strength for fasteners
as one of the basic parameters to interpret the behaviour of joints under loads. The requirements are
necessary to replicate the same conditions as those for timber structures in the field. Loads can be applied to
the specimen either by compression or tension, whichever is relevant. This part of ISO 10984 is based on
EN 383 and ASTM D5764.
ISO 10984-1 provides the test method to obtain other basic information on the behaviour of mechanical joints
under loads.

5 Requirements
The fasteners and the timber, glued laminated timber or wood-based sheet product shall be, as far as possible,
of the quality allowed by the relevant material specification.
6 Test method
6.1 Principle
The test shall be carried out on the test piece and using the apparatus shown in Figure 1. The fastener shall
be uniformly embedded along its length into the wood without significant bending of the fastener. If it is difficult
to avoid bending the fastener under test using the apparatus shown in Figure 1, the apparatus shown in
Figure 2 may be used for tests.

---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
ISO 10984-2:2009(E)
The fastener shall be loaded perpendicular to its axis through the steel loading apparatus, and the load and
the corresponding indentation or deformation shall be measured; see Figures 1 and 2.
The loading may be either in tension [see Figures 1 and 3 a)], or in compression; see Figures 2 and 3 b). For
solid timber and solid, laminated or composite wood products with only one grain direction, the loading may be
either parallel to the grain [see Figures 3 a) and 3 b)] or compression perpendicular to the grain; see
Figure 3 c).
NOTE The principles of this part of ISO 10984 can be used for other angles between the load and the grain.
6.2 Test pieces
The test piece is a rectangular prism of wood or wood-based sheet product with a fastener placed with its axis
perpendicular to the surface of the prismatic test piece. The minimum sizes of the test pieces are given in
Table 1. The thickness shall be in the range 5d to 4d.
NOTE The reason for this requirement is to ensure a uniform embedment stress distribution over the longitudinal axis
of the fastener. Particularly in using high density material, this is of concern.
For wood-based sheet products, the thickness of the test piece shall be the thickness of the panel as
produced.
For the fasteners with coatings, the coatings shall be removed before measuring the diameter and carrying
out the tests.
