Eurocode 5 Timber Design Software
This calculator supports the design of both beams and columns to Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures (BS EN 1995-1-1). The Eurocode timber design calculator includes a full library of timber materials for solid, glulam and LVL timber.
About the BS EN 1995-1-1 Timber Design Software
What design forces can be used?
The BS EN 1995-1-1 timber design tool allows the following design forces to be used as per Eurocode 5:
- Torsion
- Axial Force (P)
- Shear Force in Y and Z Directions
- Bending Force in Y and Z Directions
