Abstract

In this study, a method for the design of timber slender elements, subjected to simple compression is presented. The presented method is analytical, and is in accordance with Eurocode 5 and the new Italian technical standards (NTC 2018). The proposed method can be applied in the design of compressed elements with a generic doubly symmetric section.
