Hi,
I am going to conduct a simulation using Glulam beams GL24C and GL30C. I am trying to set these up as a new material. There is no Poisson's ratio given and I am wondering which Model Type is best.
Regards,
Oliver

Poissons ratio is definately necessary for FEA. Stress is calculated with the strain, E, and poissons ratio (Hooke's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia )

Hi.I'm not a professional but this might help you. As far as I remember the Poisson's ratio is not necessary for FEA simulation. But if you realy need that ratio and can't find anywhere, your last option is to measure it. I know it sounds hard to do but that's the only way if you're working on a project which you are being paid to do.
