Simulation
Stiffness and strength calculation of steel channel systems
FEA (Finite Element Analysis)
The aim of the project is to calculate stiffness and strength of different steel channels and piping systems with their connector elements and brackets.
Field of expertise:
Methods:
Application area:
Industry:
Calculations are needed in the construction engineering industry to determine stiffness, strength and failure modes of steel channel systems. Non-linear simulations are performed using realistic material models and contacts with bolt-pretension. The evaluation is done according to EuroCode3 or AISC.
