====== Module "Box elements" ======

{{ :en:clt:hotspot:software:cltdesigner:manual:modul_ibeam:gesamthohlkastendecke.png |Module Box elements}}

===== Input data =====

The input is divided into:

  * general information about the project and the considered structural element
  * definitions of the structural system
  * definitions of the cross section
  * input of the loads
  * informations about vibration parameters
  * calculation options

==== Structural system ====

==== Cross section ====

The input of the CLT cross section (plate cross section) is the same as for the other Module. However, you can still select whether the panels are the same at the top and bottom.

The rib cross-section (rectangular cross-section made of glulam or solid wood) is defined by entering the height and width of the rib and selecting the material. If "Standard dimensions only" is selected, the dimensions for the nearest standard cross-section are set.

===== Results and Output =====

==== Cross section values ====

On the tab "cross-section values", the effective width, the center of gravity as well as the bending and shear stiffness of the T-beam at the supports and in between are shown.

The button {{:clt:hotspot:software:cltdesigner:manual:modul_tbeam_new:info_button.png?40&nolink}} can be used to display the stiffness values of the CLT panel, the glulam beam and the shear spring, which are the input parameters for determining the effective width.
