Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures - Part 1-1: General - Common rules and rules for buildings
Also Known As:
The Eurocode 5, specifically the DIN EN 1995-1-1 standard, is a set of guidelines and regulations for the design of timber structures. It encompasses both buildings and civil engineering works that are constructed using timber or wood-based panels. The standard covers the design of structures made solely of timber as well as those composed of a combination of timber with materials like concrete, steel, or others.
The standard provides general rules for the structural design of timber structures, ensuring their safety and stability. These rules are applicable to various types of structures, including buildings and civil engineering works. The purpose of the standard is to establish a set of guidelines that designers and engineers can follow to ensure the structural integrity of timber structures.
Clause 8.7.2 is a specific section within the standard that deals with a particular aspect of the structural design. While the given description does not specify the details of the changes made in this clause, it suggests that there might have been modifications or updates to this specific section, possibly to enhance the clarity or accuracy of the guidelines.
