Definition of Timber Tapered Member

Feature 002792 | Visualization of a timber panel element, modeled with the Beam Panel thickness type for structured 3D models.

The image shows the modeling of timber frame elements in three-dimensional space using the “Beam Panel” thickness type. This method allows for the definition of the surface geometry, whereby timber frame elements are generated by an internal member-surface construct, including the simulation of the connection flexibility. The “Beam Panel” thickness type is defined using the “Multilayer Surface” add-on.
