Load Combinations in Timber Structures for European and American Timber Standards
In addition to determining loads, some particularities concerning the load combinatorics in timber design have to be considered.

Timber Design | Strength and Stability | Stability Analysis Features
- Stability analyses for flexural buckling, torsional buckling, and flexural-torsional buckling under compression
- Import of the effective lengths from the calculation using the Structure Stability add-on
- Graphical input and check of the defined nodal supports and effective lengths for a stability analysis
- Determination of the equivalent member lengths for tapered members
- Consideration of the lateral-torsional bracing position
- Lateral-torsional buckling analysis of the structural components subjected to moment loading
- Depending on the standard, a choice between user-defined input of Mcr, analytical method from the standard, and use of internal eigenvalue solver
- Consideration of a shear panel and a rotational restraint when using the eigenvalue solver
- Graphical display of a mode shape if the eigenvalue solver was used
- Stability analysis of structural components with the combined compression and bending stress, depending on the design standard
- Comprehensible calculation of all necessary coefficients, such as the factors for considering moment distribution or interaction factors
- Alternative consideration of all effects for the stability analysis when determining internal forces in RFEM/RSTAB (second-order analysis, imperfections, stiffness reduction, possibly in combination with the Torsional Warping (7 DOF) add-on)
- Can I design laminated veneer lumber with RFEM/RSTAB?
- How can I calculate a timber-concrete composite floor with cross-laminated timber?
- How is it possible to display the main support direction graphically in RF‑LAMINATE?
- Is it possible to create a second design case in RF‑LAMINATE?
- Which Dlubal Software programs can I use to calculate and design timber structures?
- Is it possible to perform fire resistance design of cross-laminated timber panels in RF‑LAMINATE?
- Is it possible to perform a detailed analysis of connections, supports, or reinforcements of cross‑laminated timber plates in RF‑LAMINATE?
- Does the RF‑LAMINATE program consider the shear correction factor for cross-laminated timber plates?
- In spite of having defined average regions, they are not considered in the design in RF‑LAMINATE Surfaces. Which setting did I overlook?
- Why is the shear stiffness reduced to 10% in the RF‑LAMINATE add-on module as well as for the orthotropic material model in RFEM for the shear modulus Gyz? I think the shear stiffness in the shear plane Gxy would have to be reduced here?
