2. Flitch beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flitch_beam

   The method for calculating the size of a flitch beam to be used in construction is straightforward, using the transformed-section method. The steel plate is treated as an equally stiff piece of wood, with its width modified by the ratio of their moduli of elasticity. This allows the deflection of the entire beam to be calculated as if it were ...

   It is used for beams, headers, columns, and posts, among other uses. The strands in PSL are clipped veneer elements having a least dimension of not more than 1 ⁄ 4 inch (6.4 mm) and an average length of at least 300 times this least dimension (around 6 ft or 1.8 m). [ 1 ]

   This is text in column-1. {{col-break|width=33%}}: start column-2 as 33% wide. This is text in column-2. {{col-end}} The table will have two columns, with column 1 twice (2×) the width of column 2. A border of 2px (1px width on each side) corresponds to a 5%. Therefore, with a 2px border, the width needs to be 95% for the table to fit within ...

5. Wood method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_method

   The Wood method, also known as the Merchant–Rankine–Wood method, is a structural analysis method which was developed to determine estimates for the effective buckling length of a compressed member included in a building frames, both in sway and a non-sway buckling modes. [1] [2] It is named after R. H. Wood.

   Therefore, a 152x152x23UC would be a column section (UC = universal column) of approximately 152 mm (6.0 in) depth, 152 mm width and weighing 23 kg/m (46 lb/yd) of length. [10] In Australia, these steel sections are commonly referred to as Universal Beams (UB) or Columns (UC). The designation for each is given as the approximate height of the ...
