06/06/2014 Design of vertical joints in CLT walls

In the latest version of the software, we added the following new features:

• Design of CLT walls with vertical joints: now you can define the mechanical characteristics of the vertical joints. Different types of joints are supported: inclined screws, half-lap joints, butt strap board, double butt strap boards, central board. The software automatically calculates the stiffness of the wall considering the stiffness of joints and it checks the resistance of the metal connectors (screws, nails) and of the boards (LVL, solid panels SWP) used in the joint.
• New materials added – LVL e SWP
• Bug fixing e small improvments
