About this publication
Now with lay-flat wire binding, BM TRADA’s Eurocode 5 Span Tables is a well-established key resource in timber specification and building. It is an essential tool for calculating the size of solid, softwood timber members necessary to give adequate support to floors, ceilings and roofs in dwellings.
The tables cover softwood species and grade combinations which satisfy strength classes C16 and C24.
