Timber Design | Serviceability Limit State | Features
- Calculation of deflections and comparison with the normative or manually adjusted limit values
- Consideration of a precamber for the deflection analysis
- Different limit values are possible, depending on the design situation type
- Manual adjustment of reference lengths and segmentation by direction
- Calculation of deflections related to the initial structure or to the deformed structure
- Automatic consideration of time-dependent deformations by increasing the load with the creep factor (can also be user-defined on the stiffness side)
- Simplified vibration design
- Graphical result display integrated in RFEM/RSTAB; for example, the design ratio of a limit value, the deformation, or the sag
- Complete integration of the results into the RFEM/RSTAB printout report
Timber Design | Serviceability Limit State | Input
Your RFEM/RSTAB program is responsible for generating and calculating the load and result combinations required for the serviceability limit state. Select the design situations for the deflection analysis in the Timber Design add-on. The calculated deformation values are then determined at each location of a member, depending on the specified precamber and the reference system, and then compared to the limit values.
You can specify the deformation limit value individually for each structural component in Serviceability Configuration. In this case, the maximum deformation should not exceed the permissible limit value, depending on the reference length. When defining design supports, you can segment the components. This allows you to determine the corresponding reference length automatically for each design direction.
Based on the position of the assigned design supports, the program automatically determines the difference between beams and cantilevers. Thus, you can be sure that the limit value is determined accordingly.
Timber Design | Serviceability Limit State | Results
You find the serviceability limit state design fully integrated in the result tables of the Timber Design add-on. If yuo want to check the design results, you can open the program and display the results with all the details at each location of the designed members. Furthermore, graphics are available for you with the result diagrams of the design ratios.
A special thing is that All result tables and graphics can be integrated into the global printout report of RFEM/RSTAB as a part of the timber design results. You can also display and document the deformations of the entire structure as a part of the RFEM/RSTAB functionality. This function is independent of the add-on.
