Material

The material of the member can be specified in this part. Timber grade can be selected in the window "Materials catalogue", which can be launched using "Catalogue" button. The material with non-standard values of properties can be specified in the window "Material editor" using "User defined" button. The strength properties of entered timber are automatically shown in dedicated frame.

Standard EN 1995-1-2 defines different charring rates for softwood and hardwood in the table 3.1. Only exception is beech, that should be considered as a softwood in accordance with 3.4.2.(6). The radio button "beech/other hardwood" is available for Dxx grades in these cases.

The timber strengths in tension and bending of members with maximum dimension less than 150mm can be increased in accordance with chapter 3.2 of EN 1995-1-1 using kh factor. This factor can be applied with the help of check box "Factor kh for increasing bending and tensile strength".

If the member is loaded from "Fin 2D" or "Fin 3D", the material will be automatically copied from this program.

The characteristics are described in the chapter "Material characteristics" of the theoretical part of the help.
