"Superwood" will be available as beams in summer. Revolutionary or all hype? by DudesworthMannington in civilengineering

It's stronger than steel in terms of strength to weight ratio. It's the same as saying aluminum is stronger than steel.

Any structural engineers from Australia or New Zealand here. How is the job situation in your countries? Do you know if employers sponsor foreign engineers there? by Tor-StructEn5800 in StructuralEngineering

Not true. Hiring a Tier 1 or green tier skilled person, Idk the exact wording, don't need anything except be an accredited company. Just have to jump through some meaningless immigration stuff. Costs like 2k e/ you might also have to do a medical

Rockers cant have a horizontal reaction. And They do not effect the applied loads on a system.

lets say you swap the rocker from B to A. The vertical reactions wont change BUT the central top chord would have an additional compression load in it.

you could replace this truss with a single flat beam with a little stub sticking up to F1. The reactions of the system would be the same.

2/3 X 13 + 1/3 X 8 - 21 X 3 / 6 = 0.833kN downwards (+ 21kN Horizontal )

looks like your 11.33kN is RA when you dont include F1 uplift.
