Join us for our next Webinar and learn how to design composite floors and stairs for vibrations using state-of-the-art and accurate finite element based vibration analysis and design.
Modern design codes provide several analysis options to determine the structural deflections and internal forces for dimensioning. These codes define certain usable boundaries, but between them, it is more or less the choice of the engineer which method is the most suitable to the actual design situation.
In engineering practice, for building structures, the only analysis types that are likely to be used are first-order (linear static) analysis and second-order (P-delta static) analysis.
According to Eurocode 3, if the deformed geometry significantly modifies the structural behaviour we have to take into account the influence of the deformation in the analysis. But how can we determine that our structure is sensitive for deformation or not and if it is how can we take into account during the analysis?
For a compression member, especially if it is a slender steel element, the stability check is the most crucial design situation.
In this article, we will show you how to design a steel column with axial compression to Eurocode 1993-1-1.
The new MasterSeries 2019 offers many enhancements and new features to help you deliver more complex and sophisticated building design and boost your productivity.
Line, patch and point loads were considerably enhanced in the MasterSeries 2019 to provide a flexible and user-friendly interface to create complex 3D building models.
Join us for our next Webinar and get to know how to apply complex loading system on non-uniform 3D multi-storey buildings including the wind loads, load patterns and combinations.
Defining and modelling standard based wind loading is a very specific and time-consuming task. MasterKey Wind Analysis module, used with MasterFrame 3D frame analysis software makes light work of the complex task of applying wind loading to any structure.
Using a cellular beam is one of the most popular ways to save weight and to create an economic structure. But, the design of these beams is carried out with separate programs. In MasterFrame the cellular beams are an integrated part of the model.
Join us for our next webinar and get to see how the Fast, Powerful & Flexible MasterSeries Building Design Suite will empower you to generate and design complete building models with ease.
