WoodWorks© Sizer software is designed to size constant cross-section structural wood members and to perform preliminary structural modeling and design.
Sizer provides detailed loads analysis and design results for single beams, columns, joists, and wall studs in Beam Mode and Column Mode.
In Concept Mode, Sizer performs simple gravity load distribution in in a structure composed of beams, columns, walls, and joist areas, and sizes these members by group or individually. Single members can be exported to Beam and Column mode for detailed analysis.
Please refer to this on-line Help and the User Guide for operating instructions and program limitations.
