Use of component method in the analysis of timber-steel connections

The use of component method for determining the moment resistance of an innovative beam-to-beam timber-steel connection is presented in the paper. The calculation of resistance of steel components is conducted based on EN 1993-1-8. The resistance of timber components is determined according to EN 1995-1-1, and based on the full-scale laboratory experiments and the finite element modelling results. The developed moment resistance calculation model, based on the component method, is well in line with the full-scale experimental and finite element modelling results.
