Structural Engineering Calculation Software
Flitch Plated Wood Beam Analysis & Design
Module Summary
- Analyzes and designs load distribution in flitch plated wood beams
- Permits ASD and LRFD methods
- Allows multiple laminations of wood and steel
- Collects shear, moment, and maximum change in shear per foot
- Performs load distribution between wood and steel based on relative stiffness
- Determines design shears and moments for wood and for steel
- Calculates Group Action Factor
- Reports steel flexural and shear checks
- Reports bolt bearing checks for bolts at the interior of the span as well as at the bearings
