Timber Design | Strength and Stability | Results
Product Feature
After the design, the performed design checks are displayed in a table. All result details can be displayed and retraced using the clearly arranged design formulas.
The design checks are carried out at all governing locations of the members and displayed graphically as a result diagram. Furthermore, there are the detailed graphics, such as the stress distribution on a cross-section or the governing mode shape, available in the result output.
All input and result data are part of the RFEM/RSTAB printout report. You can select the report contents and extent specifically for the individual designs.

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.
