Creation of a new project and description of the main window of the software – 2’57”


This video tutorial presents the procedure for the creation of a new project by defining the reference standard and the geo-location (for Italian standard only). It also illustrates the layout of the main window of the software.


Geometrical input of the structural elements – 6’05”


This video tutorial illustrates the procedure for the geometrical input of the structural elements (also starting from the import of a drawing in .dxf format) and presents an example of the geometrical modelling of a simple building.


Model view – 1’28”


This video tutorial illustrates the available options for the visualization of the model: views, extruded view, colour by property.


Materials archives – 3’24”


This video tutorial illustrates the databases of the structural elements available in the software.


Wall definition – 3’48”


This video tutorial illustrates the procedure for the definition of CLT and framed wall elements.


Floor and cross-section definition – 1’24”


This video tutorial illustrates the procedure for the definition of floor elements (joist floor, solid wood floor, CLT floor) and of the cross-section of linear elements (beams and columns made of timber and steel).


Definition of the connections at the base of wall elements – 2’55’


This video tutorial illustrates the procedure for the definition of the connections at the base of wall elements starting from the software databases.


Management of the Project properties tab – 2’31”


This video tutorial illustrates the Project properties tab and presents all the available design options.


Model validation – 1’53”


This video tutorial illustrates the procedure for the validation of the model before proceeding with the analysis.


Analysis results – 7’37’


This video tutorial presents the available analysis options and illustrates how to manage the results in terms of actions and checks.


Export of design documents – 3’01”


This video tutorial presents the available documents that the software is able to export: calculation report, drawings, model in .ifc format, actions at the base of the structure.


Geometrical definition of pitched roofs – 6’49”


This tutorial illustrates how to geometrically define a pitched roof in TimberTech Buildings.
