Timber Column Calculator to AS1720.1

Verified by the CalcTree engineering team on July 8, 2024

This calculator designs timber members in compression, like columns and truss struts, by ensuring the member meets compression requirements to Ultimate Limit State (ULS) methods.
All calculations are performed in accordance with AS 1720.1-2010.
Check out our Timber Design Standards - AS1720 and AS1684 for further explanation about timber design for compression members.
