All blocks keep the CREATE / DISCOVER / SIMULATE positions, with Equipment below Geometry; unused records remain disconnected. This changes the view only, not the exercise records.
∑ Used models & submodels
Only models assigned to records used by this exercise are listed here. The full-layout option preserves the supplied starter records; no Workbench records are changed.
CLT · Linear static · ASTM D3039 · Tension load
Shared laminate stiffness drives this membrane/CLT path. Failure criteria are independent comparisons, not blended models. Fatigue is a separate assessment.

Materials → Laminates
Stored ply stiffness, strength, density and expansion properties.
Mechanical → Simulation
SIMULATION selects this case and its analysis model; the case owns its applicable cycle and input references.
Laminates → Mechanical
Ply angles and thicknesses, stiffness, mass and ply properties.
Geometry → Mechanical
Part shape and dimensions, thickness or section definition, and model-specific geometric inputs. Each selected case consumes only the dimensions its model supports.
Models → Mechanical
Applied model assignment: CLT · Linear static. Model parameters and formulation are used by Mechanical.
Open the copied laminate and record the initial stacking sequence and total thickness.
Models: Classical laminate theory · Linear static · ASTM D3039-17(2025)-based
Study scope and limitations
ASTM-based teaching geometry, not certification. Grips, tabs, alignment and physical test validity are not simulated.
