In Figure 3-5, the deformed shape and the stress distribution on the peg are<br />

assumed. Joint capacities from the model generally agree well with experimental<br />

observations. Nevertheless, there are inconsistencies in the theory. For instance, the<br />

location of maximum bending moment in the peg does not coincide with the location of the<br />

hinge in the assumed deformed shape (Figure 3-5).<br />
