Based on experimental studies, the load-bearing capacity of such elements is determined. Deformation diagrams of nail connections under the action of a single static load are constructed. The nature of the failure of nail connections is described. A methodology for determining the bearing capacity of nail connections with different thicknesses of outer and middle elements is proposed. © 2024 The Authors. Published by ELSEVIER B.V.

Introduction Wood is a natural composite material (Galicki and Czech (2005); Landis et al. (2002); Bojok and Vintoniv (1992); Da Silva and Kyriakides (2007); Rudavska et al. (2018)) that has several advantages compared to other composite materials (Imbirovych et al. (2023); Babich et al. (2019); Dvorkin et al. (2021)). It possesses high
