    Timber Beam Design Per The 2018 NDS Standard: Technical Article

    Uploaded by

    Doğan Arslan
    The document discusses the design of a timber beam according to the 2018 National Design Specification (NDS) standard. It analyzes a 15 foot long, 4 inch by 14 inch Douglas Fir beam with a midspan point load of 2,500 pounds. It calculates the beam's cross-sectional properties and adjusts the bending capacity factors according to the NDS standard. It then verifies the beam's maximum critical buckling capacity in the RF-TIMBER AWC software using the adjusted bending design value and design ratio as specified in the 2018 NDS standard.

    Using the RF-TIMBER AWC module, timber beam design is possible according to the 2018 NDS standard ASD method. Accurately calculating timber member
    bending capacity and adjustment factors is important for safety considerations and design. The following article will verify the maximum critical buckling in RF-
    TIMBER AWC using step-by-step analytical equations per the NDS 2018 standard including the bending adjustment factors, adjusted bending design value, and
    final design ratio.

    Timber Beam Analysis


    A 15 ft. long, nominal 4 in. ⋅ 14 in. Select Structural Douglas Fir-Larch (North) beam with a mid-span point load of 2.500 kip will be designed. The goal of this
    analysis is to determine the adjusted bending factors and bending capacity of the beam. A normal load duration and pinned supports at each end of the member are
    assumed. Loading criteria are simplified for this example. Normal loading criteria can be referenced in Sect. 1.4.4 [1]. In Figure 01 a diagram of the simple beam with
    loads and dimensions is shown.

    The cross-section used in this example is a 4 in. ⋅ 14 in. nominal dimension Lumber. The actual cross-section property calculations of the timber beam can be
    viewed below:

    Formula 1

    b  =  3. 50  in. ,  d  =  13. 25  in. ,  L  =  15  ft.
