Timber Structures Part 1: Design Methods sets out limit state design
methods for the structural use of timber, which are based on the principles of structural
mechanics and on data established by research. The Standard provides design data for:
- Sawn timber
- Glue-laminated timber
- Timber in pole form
- Plywood
- Laminated veneer lumber
- Connections
Structures and their structural elements must be designed to resist the design action
effects produced by the design loads (AS/NZS 1170) for:
- Strength limit state
- Serviceability limit state
- Stability limit state
