Timber connection design to Eurocode 5.

Enter the members, fastener and geometry, and Volex Anvil designs the timber connection by the EC5 European Yield Model: the embedment strength of each member, the governing Johansen failure mode, the lateral load-carrying capacity per fastener per shear plane, and the rope-effect enhancement for axially-withdrawing fasteners.

Embedment strengths and the yield modes follow EC5 §8.2 and §8.3, so the capacity per dowel, bolt or screw matches the code for single- and double-shear joints.
