RX-TIMBER Column
Design of Timber Columns According to EN 1995-1-1 (EC 5) or DIN 1052:2008-12
RX-TIMBER Column analyzes rectangular and circular timber columns according to the standard EN 1995‑1‑1 (EC 5) or DIN 1052‑2008. The stand‑alone program performs the ultimate and the serviceability limit state designs as well as fire resistance designs.
-
Features
- Design of the following column types:
- Hinged column, optionally with elastic restraint of head or footing
- Bracket, optionally with elastic restraint of footing
- Simple geometry input with illustrative graphics
- Extensive material library
- Allocation of the model to service classes and specification of service class categories
- Detailed settings of the fire resistance design
- Specification of limit deformation for the serviceability limit state design
- Determination of design ratios, support forces, and deformations
- For design according to EC 5 (EN 1995), the following National Annexes are available:
DIN EN 1995-1-1/NA:2013-08 (Germany)
NBN EN 1995-1-1/ANB:2012-07 (Belgium)

- Automatic generation of wind and snow loads
- Multiple optional reductions according to the selected standard
- Direct data export to MS Excel
- Program languages: English, German, Czech, Italian, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Polish, Chinese, Dutch and Russian
- Verifiable printout report including all required designs. Printout report available in many output languages, for example English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Czech, Polish, Portuguese, Chinese or Dutch.
- Direct import of stp files from various CAD programs
- Design of the following column types:
-
Input
There are various options available for column modeling. Graphical representations facilitate the geometry input. Modifications are updated automatically. The relevant timber grade of the material can be selected from the material library. There are the strength classes of glulam, poplar and softwood timber available as defined in the respective standards.
In addition, you can generate a strength class with user-defined material properties and thus extend the material library. The load cases entered can be checked graphically and combined automatically in load combinations.
-
Design
In RX-TIMBER Column, the following calculation settings are available:
- Selection of the designs to be performed (ULS, SLS, fire resistance)
- Determination of displaying support forces and deformations
- Definition of parameters for fire resistance design according to the simplified method
-
Results
After the calculation, the results of performed designs including all required intermediate values are displayed in clearly arranged result tables sorted by various criteria.
Since the program displays the intermediate values in detail, transparency of all designs is ensured. Furthermore, it is possible to display the distribution of results for each x-location of the column. In this way, both the deformations and the individual internal forces can be displayed.
Designs with design details and selected result diagrams can be added in the printout report providing clearly arranged documentation. It is possible to select which calculation data will be covered in the printout.

In Germany, DIN EN 1991-1-4 with the National Annex DIN EN 1991-1-4/NA regulates the wind loads.
- I have a question about the results of the serviceability limit state design: How is the increment of the dead load by the factor 1.8 and the imposed load by 1.48 explained in the result combinations for the SLS design?
- Which Dlubal Software programs can I use to calculate and design timber structures?
- Windows Defender does not allow me to install RX‑TIMBER. Is it possible to get around this?
- How do I create a user-defined material in the RX‑TIMBER program?
- How can I load the authorization file (AUTHOR.INI) in the RX‑TIMBER module?
- Can I also apply user-defined loads in RX-TIMBER?
- How can I change the language in the RX‑TIMBER add-on module?
- Is it possible to open the RX‑TIMBER files in RFEM and RSTAB?
- The dimensioning in the graphical display in the RX‑TIMBER printout report is very confusing, depending on a structure. Is is possible to optimize it?
- Where is the consequences class defined in RX‑TIMBER?
