In the Firenwood project four different test series were performed to investigate the behaviour of glued-in metallic fasteners under the influence of heat, in particular for a fire load. The final test series 4 described in this partial report includes fire tests. The specimens are made from glue laminated timber and are connected with glued in rods. During the fire tests the specimens are loaded with a constant tensile force. The specimens were planned according to the results from the test series 1 – 3. With these tests the proposed design model as well as the numerical model should be validated.     «
