Question 1

According to ÖNORM EN 1995-1-1 (Eurocode 5), which environmental and moisture conditions define Service Class 1 (Nutzungsklasse 1, NKL 1) for timber structural members?

An environment characterized by a temperature of 20 °C and relative humidity exceeding 65% only for a few weeks per year, resulting in an average timber equilibrium moisture content of u ≤ 12% An environment characterized by a temperature of 20 °C and relative humidity exceeding 85% for several months, resulting in an average timber equilibrium moisture content of u ≤ 20% An outdoor climatic environment fully exposed to atmospheric weathering, resulting in an average timber equilibrium moisture content regularly exceeding 24% An indoor conditioned environment with relative humidity permanently below 30%, resulting in an equilibrium moisture content of u ≤ 6%

Correct Answer:

An environment characterized by a temperature of 20 °C and relative humidity exceeding 65% only for a few weeks per year, resulting in an average timber equilibrium moisture content of u ≤ 12%

Question 2

In accordance with ÖNORM EN 338 for structural solid timber (Vollholz), what is the characteristic bending strength (fm,k) of the standard strength class C24?

16 N/mm² 24 N/mm² 28 N/mm² 30 N/mm²

Correct Answer:

24 N/mm²

Question 3

According to the Austrian National Annex ÖNORM B 1995-1-1 to Eurocode 5, what are the partial material safety factors (γM) for solid timber (Vollholz) and glued laminated timber (Brettschichtholz, BSH) in ultimate limit state (ULS / GZT) fundamental combinations?

γM = 1.50 for solid timber and γM = 1.30 for glued laminated timber γM = 1.10 for solid timber and γM = 1.05 for glued laminated timber γM = 1.30 for solid timber and γM = 1.25 for glued laminated timber γM = 1.25 for solid timber and γM = 1.30 for glued laminated timber

Correct Answer:

γM = 1.30 for solid timber and γM = 1.25 for glued laminated timber

Question 4

Under ÖNORM EN 1995-1-1 Table 2.1, how are wind actions (Windeinwirkungen) and snow loads in Austrian Alpine areas (at elevations > 1000 m above sea level) classified with respect to load-duration classes (Klassen der Lasteinwirkungsdauer, KLED)?

Wind is classified as Permanent (ständig), and Alpine snow (> 1000 m) is classified as Instantaneous (sehr kurz) Wind is classified as Long-term (lang), and Alpine snow (> 1000 m) is classified as Short-term (kurz) Both wind and Alpine snow are classified as Permanent (ständig) Wind is classified as Short-term (kurz), and Alpine snow (> 1000 m) is classified as Medium-term (mittel)

Correct Answer:

Wind is classified as Short-term (kurz), and Alpine snow (> 1000 m) is classified as Medium-term (mittel)

Question 5

When designing a timber member subjected to a combination of actions with different load-duration classes (e.g. permanent self-weight, medium-term snow, and short-term wind), which rule governs the choice of the modification factor (kmod) in ÖNORM EN 1995-1-1?

The modification factor kmod corresponding to the action with the shortest duration in the combination must be selected for the design resistance calculation The modification factor kmod must be calculated as the weighted average of the kmod values of all individual actions based on their load proportions The modification factor kmod corresponding to the action with the longest duration (permanent action) must always be used to ensure structural safety The modification factor kmod is determined exclusively by the snow load regardless of whether other variable actions are larger

Correct Answer:

The modification factor kmod corresponding to the action with the shortest duration in the combination must be selected for the design resistance calculation
