Timber Design to Eurocode 5 in MIDAS GEN NX

Overview

Timber is becoming a material of choice for modern buildings, yet designing it to Eurocode 5 often means switching between analysis software, spreadsheets and hand calculations. This webinar introduces the new Timber Design plug-in for MIDAS GEN NX, which brings modelling, analysis and EC5 design together in one place.

We will show how a timber structure can be set up in GEN NX, designed to Eurocode 5 and documented in a clear, traceable report.

Key highlights include:

• Timber Modelling: Create timber and glulam materials and sections directly in GEN NX
• Eurocode 5 Design: Strength, stability, deflection, vibration and fire checks for timber members
• Transparent Results: Every check shown with its clause, formula and intermediate values
• Visual Review: 3-D utilisation view to find critical members at a glance
• Connection Input: Member-end forces ready for connection design
• Professional Reporting: Detailed calculation reports and Excel export

Join us to see how timber structures can be designed faster, with full confidence in every result!
