註釋"It has been common practice to assume that a two-parameter Weibull probability distribution is suitable for modeling lumber strength properties. Verrill and others (papers published in 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015) demonstrated theoretically and empirically that the modulus of rupture (MOR) distribution of a visual grade of lumber or of lumber that has been "binned" by modulus of elasticity (MOE) is not a two-parameter Weibull. Instead the tails of the MOR distribution are thinned via "pseudo-truncation." Verrill and others (papers published in 2013 and 2014) performed simulations that established that fitting two-parameter Weibulls to pseudo-truncated data via either full or censored data methods can yield poor estimates of probabilities of failure. In this paper we support the 2013 and 2014 simulation results by analyzing large "In-Grade type" data sets and establishing that two-parameter Weibull fits yield inflated estimates of the probability of lumber failure when specimens are subjected to loads near allowable properties. We also discuss the censored data or "tail fitting" methods permitted under ASTM D5457, and we extend, via simulations, the empirical "In-Grade type" data results for individual pieces of lumber to a simple seven-member assembly."--
