Structural Analysis
Structural Analysis
We are specialized in the structural analysis of steel structures — from industrial halls and commercial buildings to complex architectural forms. Our goal is to ensure every structure achieves the optimal balance of safety, efficiency, and economy.
Our work typically covers:
- Definition and combination of loads
- Creation of the structural system and FEM model
- Internal force and stability analysis
- Deformation check and vibration analysis
- Verification of elements and connections
- Fire design
- Clear, comprehensive reporting
Analyses are performed using advanced 3D FEM software such as Dlubal RFEM and Radimpex Tower. For critical structural members, load transfer is calculated by hand and double-checked in Nemetschek FRILO as individual elements.
STANDARDS
All analyses are carried out in full accordance with Eurocode and related national standards, including:
- EN 1990 – Eurocode 0: Basis of structural design
- EN 1991 – Eurocode 1: Actions on structures
- EN 1992 – Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures
- EN 1993 – Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures
- EN 1995 – Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures
- EN 1997 – Eurocode 7: Geotechnical Design
- EN 1998 – Eurocode 8: Design of structures for earthquake resistance
- DIN 4149: Bauten in deutschen Erdbebengebieten
