I am trying to design the connections of the 4x6 knee braces inside of a 5.5x5.5 column and 5.5 wide beam. I would like to use screws that do not require pre-drill. However, with the brace in compression, how do I account for the lateral resistance of the dowels that actually go through the end grain of the knee brace?
