Timber Design: The Implications of Future Developments in Limit State Design
After a brief discussion of the differences between timber and other construction materials, developments in limit state design and timber's characteristic duration of load effect is discussed in detail. The detailed discussion illustrates the reliability of based code development. The analysis of duration of load details and compares the Neilsen and Foschi models, with discussions of crack mechanics and phases in crack growth. Means of calculating duration of load are described. It is concluded that structural reliability is a simple but elegant and powerful concept for the comparative evaluation of structural safety. Timber engineering researchers should persevere with projects investigating the limiting aspects for perfecting reliability applications.
