Data Input

Important Note – These are descriptions to changes implemented in WoodWorks Connections for version 8.2 and may not reflect current program behaviour.

1. Fabrication Moisture Conditions for Concrete Side Members (Bug 2467)

   The Fabrication Moisture Conditions remained active for concrete side members, when other, similar controls that are not relevant to concrete were disabled. This has been corrected and the fabrication conditions are not active for concrete members.

2. Min Allowable End Distance Effect on Spacing in Row Limits (Bug 2570)

   Changing the minimum allowable end distance should impact the maximum spacing in row, but the spacing in row limits shown in the input combo box do not change when the end distance changes. This problem was eliminated by removing the min. end distance input, as it is no longer required for design.

3. Wood Screw Gauge (Change 25)

   The word "Gauge" added to wood screw number in the materials input.

4. Print Details in Initialisation File (Bug 2551)

   The "PrintDetails" option under "[SteelDesign]" was removed from the .INI settings file, as this option can be directly set in the View menu.

5. Timber Rivets vs. Glulam Rivets (Change 29)

   In the connection type titles and descriptions, the terminology “Glulam Rivets” has been changed to “Timber Rivets”, in accordance with O86 10.7 and the fact that these fasteners have long been available for use with sawn lumber materials.
