Structural Timber Design
("Structural Timber Design" is a comprehensive textbook wh...)
"Structural Timber Design" is a comprehensive textbook which provides HND and undergraduate students of building and civil engineering courses with a wealth of information and in-depth guidance on design methods to the recently revised BS 5268: Part 2 and the proposed Eurocode 5. It is also an invaluable reference source and design aid for practising engineers. The book provides a step-by-step approach to the design of all the most commonly used timber elements and connections, illustrated by detailed worked examples, and encourages the sue of computers to carry out design calculations. It covers the characteristics of timber; a review of BS 5268: Part 2 and its requirements; the design of beams and columns of solid, glued laminated and composite sections and of mechanical and glued timber connections. The book also reviews the proposed Eurocode 5 and its limit stated requirements, including the design of flexural and axially loaded members and connections.

Structural Timber Design to Eurocode 5
(Structural Timber Design to Eurocode 5 is a comprehensive...)
Structural Timber Design to Eurocode 5 is a comprehensive book which provides practising engineers and specialist contractors with detailed information and in-depth guidance on the design of timber structures based on the common rules and rules for buildings in Eurocode 5 - Part 1-1. It will also be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of civil and structural engineering. The book provides a step-by-step approach to the design of all of the most commonly used timber elements and connections using solid timber, glued laminated timber or wood based structural products. It features numerous detailed worked examples, and incorporates the requirements of the UK National Annex. It covers the strength and stiffness properties of timber and its reconstituted and engineered products; the key requirements of Eurocode 0, Eurocode 1 and Eurocode 5 - Part 1-1; the design of beams and columns of solid timber, glued laminated, composite and thin-webbed sections; the lateral stability requirements of timber structures; and the design of mechanical connections subjected to lateral and/or axial forces as well as rigid and semi-rigid connections subjected to a moment. The Authors Jack Porteous is a consulting engineer specialising in timber engineering. He is a Chartered Engineer, Fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers and Member of the Institution of Structural Engineers. He is a visiting scholar and lecturer in timber engineering at Napier University. Abdy Kermani is the Professor of Timber Engineering and R&D consultant at Napier University. He is a Chartered Engineer, Member of the Institution of Structural Engineers and Fellow of the Institute of Wood Science with over 20 years' experience in civil and structural engineering research, teaching and practice. The authors have led several research and development programmes on the structural use of timber and its reconstituted products. Their research work in timber engineering is internationally recognised and published widely. Also of Interest Timber Designers' Manual Third Edition E.C. Ozelton & J.A.

Structural Timber Design to Eurocode 5 provides practising engineers and specialist contractors with comprehensive, detailed information and in-depth guidance on the design of timber structures based on the common rules and rules for buildings in Eurocode 5 - Part 1-1. It will also be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of civil and structural engineering. It provides a step-by-step approach to the design of all of the commonly used timber elements and connections using solid timber, glued laminated timber or wood based structural products, and incorporates the requirements of the UK National Annex. It covers: * strength and stiffness properties of timber and its reconstituted and engineered products * key requirements of Eurocode 0, Eurocode 1 and Eurocode 5 - Part 1-1 * design of beams and columns of solid timber, glued laminated, composite and thin-webbed sections * lateral stability requirements of timber structures * design of mechanical connections subjected to lateral and/or axial forces * design of moment resisting rigid and semi-rigid connections * racking design of multi-storey platform framed walls Featuring numerous detailed worked examples, the second edition has been thoroughly updated and includes information on the consequences of amendments and revisions to EC5 published since the first edition, and the significant additional requirements of BSI non contradictory, complimentary information document (PD 6693-1-1) relating to EC5. The new edition also includes a new section on axial stress conditions in composite sections, covering combined axial and bending stress conditions and reference to the major revisions to the design procedure for glued laminated timber.
