RE: Timber joints and stainless steel fasteners

hi ya

andrew in the uk here.

i don't know what codes are used in the US but you may like to get a hold of our british standard BS5268 and the new eurocode 5 which give detailed guidance on the dowels in timber.

if you contact me directly i'll put you in touch from where you can obtain them directly.
