    Uploaded by

    David O'Meara
    This document contains calculations for the design of timber studs. It includes: 1) Geometric properties of the studs such as length, depth, bearing area, and moment of inertia. 2) Material properties of the C16 strength class timber including compression strength and modulus of elasticity. 3) Load calculations including permanent and variable loads applied to each stud. 4) Design checks for compressive strength and buckling resistance to verify the C16 timber studs meet the required design compressive load.
