Estruturas de madeira: Implementação de um software para o dimensionamento de peças tracionadas e comprimidas

Abstract

In view of the Brazilian potential in relation to planted forests, the civil construction segment tends to grow more and more, since the use of wood as a structural material has several advantages over other materials such as concrete and steel, besides contributing to the environment and promoting reforestation. In light of this scenario and in order to assist academics and professionals interested in working, in civil construction, with wooden structural parts, this paper proposes a software product focused on the verification of wooden structural parts submitted to tension and compression parallel to the fibers. This product is based on the NBR 7190/1997 and NBR 7190/2022 standards, which establish the general conditions that must be followed for the correct construction, from the design, execution and control of wood structures. With the realization of numerical tests, the application of the software is evidenced and comparisons between the two normative instruments in question are made possible, showing the main differences between them.
