The lintel can be positioned directly above the opening or at the top of the wall.Windows and doors opening can be created and stored in a library to be reused for a series of walls.The wall outlines can be copied to create the structure faces and the different stories of the structure.The wall surfaces can be rectangular or trapezoidal.Create wall outlines by clicking two or three points in the 3D environment.Roofs and floors made of plywood or OSB panels can be calculated.Ĭalculation of wood trusses with metallic connections according to the TPIC. For curved elements, tension perpendicular to grain needs to be verified manually.Ĭalculates the ultimate limit states, service limit states and vibration control of wood joists.
The chosen section may then be assigned to the selected members of the model.Ĭalculation of structural elements like beams, simple or built-up columns, inclined roof purlins, straps, decking, various arcs (circular, parabolic, Tudor, triangular, broken arcs).īeams and arcs may be straight or curved with a constant or variable section. It is possible to modify the section of the members or the material type and properties. The Re-Design command allows to run a partial analysis on selected members. Notches can be defined at the top and bottom chord for each member end for the purpose of calculating the shear resistance. Limit states (unity checks) can be displayed graphically on the 3D model by means of colors or numerically in spreadsheets and reportsĪll intermediate results required to verify the calculations are provided in spreadsheets. The program can also calculate several design parameters.Ĭalculations of bending, compression, tension, shear, bearing and combined resistance of wood elements can be carried on the results of a linear, P-Delta, non-linear, seismic or dynamic analysis.Ĭomplete check of deflection according to a comprehensive set of criterions. Design made according to the NDS National Design Specification (NDS) for Wood Construction and the CSA O86-19.Īll parameters required to calculate the resistance of the elements such as unbraced length, buckling lengths, buckling factors, resistance factors and others can be customized either graphically or from spreadsheets.
