Technical Guidance Note (Level 2, No. 26): Analysis modelling for mass timber structures (part 1)

This note discusses analysis modelling considerations specific to mass timber structures. Part 2 looks at element properties and types, hybrid/composite structures and connections, as well as presenting a short example.

This article aims to outline the historic use of timber pile foundations, their key characteristics, and how to preserve them for the future.

This note describes the design of timber posts based on limit state theory. The note assumes that the reader is familiar with the use of coefficient factors prevalent within BS EN 1995-1-1 (Eurocode 5).
