"In August 1988 an experimental program was conducted to investigate the suitabillity of square profile flange slots in I-beams to house 10 mm particleboard (nominal size). Results showed that a flange slot width of from 10 mm to 10.15 mm gave the greatest ultimate strength in tension for the 10.15 mm particleboard web glued with a resorcinol adhesive. As an outcome of those tests a program was developed to test the strength, stiffness and performance under load of six sets of specially built beams with square profile slots."--p. i.
