INFORMATION:
The following pre-structural design tables for the cross-laminated timber product XWORKS from Holzwerke van Roje were created based on the theory of flexible bonded bending beams (γ method).
The most important assumptions are as follows:
- Usage class 1
- Permanent load gk without cross-laminated timber; this has already been taken into account in the calculation
- Load capacity: cat. A (residential) and B (offices) ψ0 = 0.7 [-], ψ1 = 0.5 [-] and ψ2 = 0.3 [-]
- Fire rating according to DIN EN 1995-1-2/NA and a burn rate of β0 = 0.65 mm/min
- Verification of vibration according to Hamm/Richter with
- Lehr’s damping ratio of 4 %
- b = 1.2* l
- cement screed with 6.0 cm und einem Emodule of 25,000 N/mm²
- structural requirements must be considered
- Deflection analysis with kdef of 0.8 [-] and the following limits
- winst = l/300
- wnet,fin = l/300
- wfin = l/200
- The pre-structural design table does not replace a static calculation
