Lesson 2 Assessment
Difficulty Level: 2/5
Estimated Time to Complete: 15 minutes
Problem Statement: Cantilevered Glulam Roof Beam Design
The objective of this assessment is to identify the critical load combination for bending moment (+) in the design of a cantilevered glulam roofbeam.
Given Data:
- Glulam Type & [Grade]: D. Fir-L. [20f-EX]
- Beam Size: 265 x 1178 mm
- All supports: Glulam Colum – D. Fir-L. [16c-E]
- Specified Dead Load: 6 kN/m
- Specified Snow Load: 10 kN/m
- Load Duration: Standard
- Service Condition: Dry
- Lateral Support: None
Design Requirement:
Use the software to determine the critical load combination for bending moment (+) in the design of a cantilevered glulam roof beam. You will then answer a multiple choice question and submit your design.
Question 1
Select the most appropriate answer based on the software output and standard design requirements.
