Abstract：
Parallel chord wood truss is the main kind of joist used in the timber building floor. The loading carrying tests for parallel chord wood truss made of Chinese fir were carried out and so as know the load-deformation relationship and failure modes. Tests results showed the parallel chord wood truss had better strength storage and the metal plates extracted in the connect was the main reason for the failure of parallel chord wood truss.
