Eurocodes and supporting product and test standards

Eurocodes regulate design of timber, steel, concrete structures
in conjunction with national application documents but give
no provisions on material properties
Harmonized product standards regulate material properties of
harmonized building products (e.g. not adhesives) such as
EN 14080 glulam
EN 14081-1 solid timber in conjunction with national grading rules
and classification standard EN 1912 and strength class standard
EN 338
EN 15497 finger jointed lumber
EN 16351 cross laminated timber
EN 14374 LVL
EN 13986 panel products in conjunction with product / production standards, e.g.
EN 300 for OSB
Test standards, e.g. EN 408, EN 789,..
Calculation standards, e.g. EN 14358 on characteristic values
Permissible stress concept

act = 95
acting loads, hence resulting section forces E and stresses

represent in general 95% quantiles of the distributions
Design verification
act permissible
where in case of structural timber (roughly)
permissible = f50 /3

Semiprobabilistic design concept with partial factors
act = 95
as in permissible stress concept the loads / section forces/ stress

distributions represent 95% quantiles of the distributions
Design verification
d design stress
d fd
fd design strength
d = act L
L partial factor for load (1,5 for live load; 1,35 for perm. load)
f d = fk kmod / M
fk
characteristic strength property (5% quantile)
kmod modification factor (time, climate)

M partial factor for strength (material dependant; 1,1 to 1,3)

Compression
6.1.4 Compression perpendicular to the grain
where
c,90,d
is the design compressive stress in the effective contact area

perpendicular to the grain;
Fc,90,d
is the design compressive load perpendicular to the grain;
Aef
is the effective contact area in compression perpendicular to

the grain;
Fc,90,d
is the design compressive strength perpendicular to the

grain;
kc,90
is a factor taking into account the load configuration, the

possibility of splitting and the degree of compressive
deformation.
Aicher
UITM 2014, Malaysia
74
Compression
The effective contact area perpendicular to the grain, Aef, should be determined taking into
account an effective contact length parallel to the grain, where the actual contact length, , at
each side is increased by 30 mm, but not more than a, or 1/2, see Figure 6.2.
2. The value of kc,90 should be taken as 1,0 unless the conditions in the following paragraphs
apply. In these cases the higher value of kc,90 specified may be taken, with a limiting value
of kc,90 = 1,75.
3. For members on continuous supports, provided that 1 2h, see Figure 6.2a, the value
of kc,90 should be taken as:
kc,90 = 1,25 for solid softwood timber
kc,90 = 1,5 for glued laminated softwood timber
where h is the depth of the member and is the contact length.

4. For members on discrete supports, provided that 1 2h, see Figure 6.2b, the value of kc,90
should be taken as:
kc,90 = 1,5 for solid softwood timber
kc,90 = 1,75 for glued laminated softwood timber provided that I 400 mm
where h is the depth of the member and is the contact length.

6.1.7 Shear (crack factor issue)

2. For the verification of shear resistance of members in bending, the influence
of cracks should be taken into account using an effective width of the member
given as:
bef = kcr b
where b is the width of the relevant section of the member.
NOTE: The recommended value for kcr is given as
kcr = 0,67
for solid timber
kcr = 0,67
for glued laminated timber
kcr = 1,0
for other wood-based products in

accordance with EN 13986 and EN
14374.
