Abstract: A study was conducted to evaluate the two design codes currently in use for the design of mechanical connections subjected to both lateral and withdrawal loading in wood structures. The allowable stress design (ASD) code and the new reliability-based code using the load and resistance factor design (LRFD) format were evaluated to see which offers the greatest efficiency (i.e., economy) with respect to the design of mechanical fasteners. When the allowable dead load plus live load (due to floor occupancy, snow, wind, and seismic activity) combinations were calculated in each format, comparisons revealed that the LRFD code proved to be more economical over a wider range of the two relevant input variables [dead-to-live load ratio (
