Due to new construction methods, especially the cross-laminated timber construction, timber structures have opened up its area. This training gives an introduction to the design of timber structures using the RFEM program family. The special features of material models and connection design on surfaces are explained in detail. After the design of simple two-dimensional plate structures, the design is transferred to three-dimensional structures.
In addition to the ultimate limit state design, the serviceability limit state design as well as the complex vibration analysis on plate structures are explained.
