    Applies To
    Product(s): STAAD.Pro
    Version(s): ALL
    Environment: ALL
    Area: Timber Design
    Subarea:  
    Original Author: Sye Chakraborty, Bentley Technical Support Group

     

    The timber database tables in STAAD.Pro lists various properties like B, D, Sxx, Syy, Fb, Ft, Fc perp etc. Can you please explain what these represent  ?

    Here is an explanation on the various items included in the Timber database tables

    B – Width of the section

    D – Depth of the section

    Area – Cross sectional area

    Sxx – Elastic section modulus about the major axis

    Ixx – Moment of inertia about the major axis

    Syy – Elastic section modulus about the minor axis

    Iyy – Moment of inertia about the minor axis

    Fb – Allowable Bending Stress

    Ft – Allowable Tensile Stress

    Fv – Allowable Shear Stress

    Fc perp – Allowable Compression perpendicular to grain

    Fc - Allowable Compression parallel to grain

    E – Elastic modulus
