Timber Column

HO1+

The HO1+ program is used to design timber columns. Available types are single-part (circular, rectangular) and multi-part cross-sections that are resiliently connected to each other. All partial cross-sections and distances have the same cross-section and modulus of elasticity.

Design

The internal forces are calculated in a first-order analysis. The design is performed in accordance with EN 1995 section 6. The stability verifications are based on the equivalent member method.

For the calculation of composite cross-sections with yielding connections, the cross-sectional properties are calculated for an ideal individual member. After this, the internal forces and deformations (with and without creep) are determined on the ideal individual member. In addition, the internal forces are determined in the different cross-sections.

The verifications are performed on the ideal individual member and on the final cross-sections. Verifications of the connecting components between the individual cross-section parts (wood spacers, diagonal struts, fasteners) are performed in the connection.
