This introductory video is part of a self-paced tutorial series ideal for new to S-TIMBER users. The tutorial series walks through the steps required to model, analyze, and design a structure built from mass timber.

We explain the steps required to model, analyze, and design a three-story mass timber structure built from Glulam columns and beams, and CLT floor panels. Views who complete all the tutorials will become familiar with:

  • working in and configuring the S-TIMBER model management environment
  • modeling geometry
  • defining material and sections
  • applying boundary conditions
  • defining and applying loads
  • analyzing and designing 
  • exporting a timber design report
