Stand-Alone Programs for Timber Structures

RX-TIMBER Glued-Laminated Beam designs wide-span glulam beams of eight different beam types (parallel, monopitch roof, double tapered beam, and others).

It is possible to consider typical stiffening elements for transversal tension; for example, bonded steel bars.

RX-TIMBER Continuous Beam designs single-span and continuous beams as well as hinged girder systems (Gerber) with or without cantilevers.

The RX‑TIMBER Column program designs hinged columns (optionally with elastic head or footing restraint) and brackets (optionally with elastic footing restraint). There are various round and rectangular cross‑sections available.

The stand‑alone program RX‑TIMBER Purlin designs coupled purlins or continuous beams at the ultimate and the serviceability limit state as well as fire resistance according to Eurocode 5.

RX‑TIMBER Frame performs all required designs according to EC 5 for three‑hinged frames with the following geometry types:

• Symmetrical / asymmetrical
• Half-frame
• Column sloping inside/outside
• Intermediate piece with/without

The RX‑TIMBER Brace stand‑alone program performs the ultimate and the serviceability limit state design as well as fire resistance design of truss bracing for stiffening according to Eurocode 5.

RX‑TIMBER Roof performs all required designs according to EC 5 for the following roof types:

• Flat roof
• Monopitch roof
• Duopitch roof (symmetrical / asymmetrical)
