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

Abstract

In view of the great potential of wood as a structural material, this study seeks to understand a little more about the applications of wood as a supporting element in a building. More specifically, we sought to implement a software that is capable of verifying and dimensioning wooden parts subjected to traction stress. In the light of NBR 7190/1997 - Wood Structures Project, the main criteria that determine the calculation of wood structures under tension effect were established, developing a software that allows the verification and structural dimensioning in these conditions, allowing the visualization of new ways of using wood in civil construction and the insertion of software as a tool to assist in the dimensioning of wooden structures.
