This model presents how elastic compliance is taken into account in a timber connection and how the resulting torsional stiffness is recorded. The calculation is based on the slip modulus in order to model precise connection properties. It provides technical insights into the interaction between the slip modulus and stiffness. The practical simulation underlines the importance of optimized connection techniques.
