Aplicação web de apoio a aprendizagem para dimensionamento de elementos em madeira submetidos à esforços de tração e compressão

Abstract

With the increasing use of computational tools in Civil Engineering, mastering these applications has become as essential as understanding the theoretical principles behind the calculations. The 2022 update to the Brazilian standard NBR 7190:2022 created a demand for new software that integrates these changes while also serving an educational purpose supporting dynamic learning and real-world professional applications. In response, the web application TimberCalc was developed using TypeScript and Python. The tool processes user inputs to calculate material and geometric properties, evaluate boundary conditions, and verify compliance with Ultimate Limit States and Serviceability Limit States. The interface generates a final report, enabling the analysis of timber elements under subjected to tension or combined tensio-bending, as well compression or combined compression-bending.
