According to the reliability theory, the size effect has a great impact on the design value on shear strength of metal-plate connector. But little research has been done. So, based on GB/T50329-2002 of China, firstly, determining the size of metal-plate at different conditions, size effect tests were then conducted on metal-plate connectors composed of a type of Chinese metal-plate and 2# SPF dimension lumber from North America. A total of 125 metal-plate connectors are tested at five angles (90°, 60°T, 120°C, 150°C, 30°T), with Five kinds of widths (50mm，85mm，125mm，150mm，180mm) for each angle. Based on the testing data, fitting curve of size effect is presented, and width-effect parameters are estimated with SPSS(Statistic Package for Social Science). Results indicate that the width effect is significant; shear strength increases with the increase of width, and stays stable after a certain width.
