Very interesting article in Sep/Oct issue of "Wooden Boat" magazine. It covers scarf length, and the method of test. As it's written for boat builders , the materials are oak & epoxy. This is the first material I've seen on actual testing of scarf joints, but there may be some info hidden away in the old NACA reports and Forest Product Laboratory reports.
