摘要：Wood is one of the construction materials with the greatest potential towards sustainable development. Although, in Venezuela there are difficulties in trying to consolidate culture and tectonics with this material and its derivatives, it is necessary to continue the research and development in science and technology. This would ensure knowledge acquisition and the creation of innovative products and industrial systems for the construction of buildings and infrastructure which could serve as reference models at national level. Thus, this paper describes the process of a fundamental technical contribution in the area. We propose the evaluation, according to the ASTM standard, of the structural quality of handcrafted bolted joints made of steel rods manufactured at the steel producer SIDOR (initials in Spanish corresponding to Siderúrgica del Oricono) located in the city of Puerto Ordaz, Bolívar State. Domestic political difficulties have impacted on Venezuela’s economy and the overall development of the construction industry, which is also faced with the pressure to FIND construction materials that are mainly absorbed by the national social housing schemes (Gran Misión Vivienda Venezuela). The importance and reason for this unconventional and unique research is based on the difficult task of acquiring foreign construction materials, such as bolts, due to their high costs, import procedure restrictions, particularly the access to foreign currency. This has the possibility to generate safe wooden structural joints that would be standardized, economically competitive and accessible to all.
