Design of Timber Columns of Tall Timber Buildings with Consideration of the Long-Term Behaviour
摘要
Timber columns of tall timber buildings need to be designed for combined axial compression and bending under consideration of in-plane buckling and the material-specific long-term behaviour. This contribution provides an overview of the load-bearing behaviour of such columns and their design according to EN 1995-1-1. The background, assumptions, and limitations of different design concepts are discussed. The aim is to give a comprehensive overview of the load-bearing behaviour and design of timber columns.
