Fatigue checks of the crane structures according Eurocode 3 EN 13001 FEM 1 001 using SDC Verifier

All structures subjected to repetitive loading have to be checked for Fatigue damage to define the residual lifetime, investigate or prevent cracks or failures. This helps with the design of new structures as well as with maintenance of the existing ones. SDC Verifier present complete set of tools to recognize […]

Eurocode3 Benchmarks

This article provides list of benchmarks from “Designers’ Guide to Eurocode3: Design of steel buildings EN 1993-1-1, EN 1993-1-3 and EN 1993-1-8” to verify design results of SDC Verifier. All examples modeled in Ansys, Femap and Simcenter and calculated with SDC Verifier. Example 6.6: cross-section resistance under combined bending and […]

AISC 360-10 and Eurocode 3

The tutorial illustrates how to perform Member Check according to the AISC 360-10. A beam model of a lattice structure has been used as a start FEM model. In this tutorial, AISC 360-10 Beam Design Checks are reviewed in details. A beam model structure has been used as a start […]
