Creep and wood

Good morning,

 

After doing a search on the forum where I did not find an answer, I am wondering about taking into account the creep of wooden elements.

 

I note that in the wood verification section, the ufin deflection is a simple multiplication of the deflections of the load cases affected by the creep coefficient according to eurocode 5 §2.2.3 (5) where it is specified that it is reserved for ''structures made up of elements, components and assemblies whose creep behavior is identical'', which is rarely the case.

 

Is it possible to take creep into account by modifying stiffnesses for a multi-material model?

 

Acord-Bat does this automatically via a sub-model and it is also possible to combine the results of several sets of properties (inst model, and fine model) to obtain results taking into account the different behaviors of the materials.

 

RFEM is currently working on the subject to provide reliable results in the same philosophy.

 

Does Robot allow this kind of analysis?

 

Thank you in advance.
