Review article

The article gives the main premises for the development of a calculation method of stress-laminated timber decks (SLTD), taking into account the compliance of connections between their constituent elements. The calculation method is developed on the basis of the analysis of existing foreign calculation methods, own research, as well as domestic normative and technical literature in the field of designing timber structures. It is proposed to consider such structures as controlled structures with adjustable stress-strain state, which is a new approach to the study these structures. The main methods of stress-strain state regulation are given. The developed method for calculating the SLTD and the calculation algorithm in accordance with it are described.
