Timber Structures - Calculation and Verification of Characteristic Values
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14358 standard provides methods for calculating and verifying the characteristic values of timber structures. It focuses on determining the 5-percentile strength, density, and mean values for stiffness based on test results for solid wood, fasteners, and wood-based products during initial type testing. The standard also includes methods for checking the strength, density, or stiffness properties through factory production control by variables. It is important to note that this standard does not cover sampling procedures, instead referring to relevant product standards for sampling guidelines. Additionally, specific requirements related to the product are outlined in separate standards, such as EN 384, which provides specific correction factors for calculating characteristic values for solid timber.
