Size beams, joists, columns and wall studs, one at a time or in a system, under various load conditions
With WoodWorks® Sizer, you can size beams, joists, columns and wall studs to meet the CSA O86 Standard.
- Specify dead, live, snow and wind loads
- Automatically pattern loads
- Generate a materials take-off summary based on your design
- Design for point, line, area, triangular, and trapezoidal loads simultaneously
- Automatically check all load combinations as per the NBC
- Analyze the critical load cases for reactions at supports, shear, bending, and deflection
- Design for fire resistance of large cross-section wood elements and light frame walls and floors
- Generate detailed analysis reports and diagrams
- Generate a list of acceptable sections for dimension lumber, heavy timbers, glulam, LVL, PSL, or I-joists
- Use the Materials Database editor to customize the software to your needs
Design Entire Structures – Concept Mode
- Configure and design a complete structure in plan
- Do preliminary designs of structures considering gravity loads using the graphical design and analysis work area
- Perform multi-storey gravity load analysis – sizing all structural members and reporting the reactions at the base
- Export elements from Concept Mode for further analysis into either Beam Mode or Column Mode
Design Beams – Beam Mode
- Design individual wood bending members
- Use Beam Mode to verify the design of critical bending members
- Generate deflection, shear and bending moment diagrams for any beam or joist in your project
- Design single or multi-span beams and joists with or without cantilevers
- Design beams for gravity and uplift loads
- Fire resistance design for beams, CLT floors and light frame floors
Design Columns – Column Mode
- Design individual wood columns, walls, and beam-columns
- Use Column Mode to verify the design of critical compression members
- Design columns and wall studs to resist both axial and lateral loads
- Generate deflection, shear and bending moment diagrams for a single column or wall stud
- Fire resistance design for columns, CLT walls and light frame walls
