Software Recommendation???
Software Recommendation???
(OP)
I'm interested in modeling software primarily for wood framed structures (residential, multi-family). Does anyone have any recommendations? Please include a website if available.
Thanks,
Drew

Risa is the best one for general analysis. It has a module for designing timber members.
Woodworks is the best one for the design of heavy timber structures and any one-at-a-time members.
Keymark is the best one for performing the design of light frame wood structures. It allows an almost ridiculous level of detail in design.
