Nordic Sizer
WoodWorks® Sizer is a software program that can be used to design entire structures or singlemembers (joists, beams, columns and studs) using the full range of engineered wood products:glulam, prefabricated wood I‐joists, and structural composite lumber.
For sizing wood beams:
- Analyzes and designs simple and/or multiple span beams with cantilevers
- Automatically patterns live loads for multiple span beams
- Beams may be horizontal, sloped or have an oblique angle
- Specify deflection limits, lateral bracing, notch dimensions
- Species, grade, width, thickness and number of plys may all be specified as ’unknown’ in the input ‐ a list of suggested sections showing all the possibilities for a given span and loading arrangement will automatically be generated
- Analyzes and designs columns and studs in load‐bearing applications
- Columns may be designed for combined bending and axial loads
KeyBeam is the single member sizing program, which allows you to input span, bearing locations,
additional loads, and holes for a single member design.
