peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1design Explanation: In this case, maybe ''joint design''. This section outlines the principles of joint design using dowel-type fasteners in timber. http://research.ttlchiltern.co.uk/pif294/tdk/geninfo/pdf/2-3... It seems to cover ''spacing'', as used in this document: http://eurocodes.jrc.ec.europa.eu/doc/WS2008/EN1995_6_Hartl.... But ''justifications'' is used more broadly in this document: http://www.enrdd.com/documents/documents/Construction-Ecocon... For example: Principe de justification aux états-limites ultimes des eurocodes 5. In which ''justification'' seems to correspond to the use of the word ''design'': Eurocode 5 introduces limit state design principles to structural timber design in the UK for the first time. http://www.strongtie.co.uk/pdf/Limit_State_Design_Pre.pdf |
