LTB of member will occur even if it is
loaded in the plane of minor stiffness
when point of load application is too
high over shear center
This phenomenon is called „mosquito wings“ effect
.

CONCLUSION
Harmonization and unification of rules
of metal (steel, aluminium) and timber
Eurocodes, if it is reasonable,
will be good for everybody
especially for designers in practice.
Shortening of Eurocodes is desirable.
