Structural Engineering. Timber Structures. Design Manual 2.5.
Abstract
Basic criteria for the design of timber structural elements and timber structural systems are presented for use by experienced engineers. The contents cover general topics concerning design standards for bridge and building structures and details of design. A section on selection of species and grade of timber is included. Special considerations in the design of plywood elements and of built-up members, problems of wood preservation and termite control, fire retardant treatment, and climatic influences are discussed.
