Design Specifications

If you have enabled the Timber Design add-on in the model base data and selected the Standard, the Timber Design folder will be added to the “Navigator – Data” section.

Timber Design

The objects in the “Timber Design” category manage all design-related specifications, such as effective lengths, wood screws, design scenarios, material properties, and design configurations. The objects and entries are also accessible in the table: Select “Timber Design” from the list to display the design-specific input data in tables.

The tables and input dialog boxes in the “Timber Design” category are described in the chapter Timber Design.

Options

Further settings for timber design are available in various input dialog boxes of the RFEM or RSTAB interface. For example, you can use members or member sets for the design, define shear panels and rotational restraints, or define design supports for compression perpendicular to the grain, which also serve as supports for serviceability limit state design. These important inputs for object types that are not part of the “Timber Design” category are described in the chapter Options.
