Timber Assignment

This document provides calculations and design details for a timber roof structure. It includes: 1) Design loads calculations including self-weight, imposed loads, and wind loads. The maximum design load is 7.24 kN/m2. 2) Selection of timber grade and material properties. C16 grade timber with characteristic strength and stiffness values is selected. 3) Design of a purlin section to resist bending and shear loads. A 50x75mm section is adequate. 4) Analysis of a timber truss to determine member forces. The maximum forces are 46.62 kN (top chord) and 43.32 kN (bottom chord). 5) Design checks for
