Adjusting Lamella for Glulam Sections in RFEM 6
How can I modify the lamella thickness for a glulam section in RFEM 6?
Answer
First, the Timber Design add-on must be activated in the Base Data.
Once you have the glulam material and section created, edit the material and check on the box 'User-defined material'.
Once this is checked on, navigate to the 'Timber Design' tab and scroll down to the 'Glued laminated timber' section. Here is where you can adjust the lamella or the 'Thickness of lamination'.

Timber Member Compression Perpendicular to the Grain acc. to NDS 2018 and CSA O86:19
A standard scenario in timber member construction is the ability to connect smaller members by means of bearing on a larger girder member. Additionally, member end conditions may include a similar situation where the beam is bearing on a support type. In either scenario, the beam must be designed to consider the bearing capacity perpendicular to the grain according to the NDS 2018 (Sect. 3.10.2) and the CSA O86:19 (Clause 6.5.6 and 7.5.9). In the new generation RFEM 6 and Timber Design add-on, the added feature 'design supports' now allows users to comply with the NDS and CSA bearing perpendicular to the grain design checks.
