Check

Timber design Check helps you verify timber member utilization based on selected calculation data and review results in table format.

Check


Tool palette​

When you activate Check, a tool palette opens.

Check tool palette

The tool palette has two options, but options may not be available for every subtype:

  • Calculation - drop-down menu to choose the check basis:

    • Load combinations
    • Load groups

  • Display table - checkbox that opens the utilization table.


Utilization table​

The Utilization table is split into two tables:

  • Groups table (top) – shows design groups and ungrouped single elements.

  • Element details table (bottom) – shows detailed utilization results for elements in the selected group, or for the selected ungrouped single element.

Groups and element columns by subtype​

The group and element tables correspond to the timber auto design table for the selected subtype, using the same columns.

Groups columns:

  • Group – group name, or the element name when the row is an ungrouped single element.

  • Design parameters – parameters used for the design.

  • Applied profile – list of profiles applied to the group.

  • Applied fire protection – (for fire design subtypes) list of fire protection materials applied to the group.

  • Applied type – (for Orthotropic panel and CLT panel) the type of material applied to the group.

  • Max – maximum utilization in the group.

  • Min – minimum utilization in the group.

Element columns for Timber bar and Timber bar, fire design subtypes:​

  • Bar – element name.

  • Max – maximum utilization from all verifications.

  • T – combined bending and axial tension.

  • C – combined bending and axial compression.

  • S – combined shear and torsion, according to 6.1, 7, 6.1,8.

  • FB1 – flexural buckling around axis 1, according to 6.3.2.

  • FB2 – flexural buckling around axis 2, according to 6.3.2.

  • LTB – lateral-torsional buckling utilization, according to 6.3.3.

  • AB – bending at apex, according to 6.4.3.

  • AT – tension at apex, according to 6.4.3.

  • DL – deflection limit utilization (not shown for fire design subtypes).

Element columns for Orthotropic panel, CLT panel, and CLT panel, fire design subtypes:​

  • Panel – element name.

  • Max – maximum utilization.

  • Sx+ – tension in the x-axis, according to 6.2.3.

  • Sx- – compression in the x-axis, according to 6.1.4 and 6.2.4.

  • Sy+ – tension in the y-axis, according to 6.2.3.

  • Sy- – compression in the y-axis, according to 6.1.4 and 6.2.4.

  • Txy – shear in xy-plane, according to 6.1.7.

  • Tx – shear in xz-plane, according to 6.1.7.

  • Ty – shear in yz-plane, according to 6.1.7.

  • SI – shear interaction (CLT panel and CLT panel, fire design only).

  • TS – tension and shear (CLT panel and CLT panel, fire design only).

  • CS – compression and shear (CLT panel and CLT panel, fire design only).

  • Bu – buckling utilization, according to 6.3.2.

  • To – torsional check utilization (CLT panel and CLT panel, fire design only).

  • DL – deflection limit utilization (shown for Orthotropic panel and CLT panel, not shown for CLT panel, fire design).

Table options and buttons​

The bottom part always contains:

  • Show only visible objects in the table – limit rows to currently visible model objects
  • Check – run check for selected table row
  • Delete – delete applied quantity for selected table row
