Nail connections
1. Shear connection
t1 = headside thickness
t2 = pointside penetration (> 6d for smooth nails, > 8d for other nails)
2. Double Shear connection
t1 = minimum of head side timber thickness and pointside penetration (> 6d for smooth nails, > 8d for
other nails)
t2 = central member thickness
3. Overlapping Nails
Use when t - t2 > 4d (dia of nail used)
t = central member thickness
t2 = pointside penetration of nail
