Buckling analysis and design of steel structures 

This training offers a clear and practical overview of modern buckling analysis and design for steel structures. It introduces key concepts such as structural imperfections, second-order effects, and eigenvalue analysis. You’ll also explore Eurocode 3 design approaches, including the advanced General Method, and learn how to apply them effectively using Consteel’s analysis tools. 

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

Definitions and Classification of Buckling Phenomena 
Introduction to the fundamental concepts of structural buckling, including clear definitions, classifications, and differentiation between various buckling problems. 
Key Characteristics and Analysis Types of Global and Member Buckling 
Exploration of the essential features of global and member-level buckling, along with the corresponding structural analysis approaches relevant to each phenomenon. 
Linear Buckling Analysis: Theory, Interpretation, and Practical Use 
In-depth explanation of linear (eigenvalue) buckling analysis, interpretation of its results, and the integration of geometric imperfections and second-order effects in practical design. Emphasis on their interrelation in a reliable buckling design workflow. 
Eurocode 3 Buckling Design Methods and Calculation Procedure 
Overview of the theoretical basis of Eurocode 3 buckling design approaches. Step-by-step guidance on identifying relevant buckling cases, evaluating pure modes, and accounting for coupled effects (e.g., in-plane vs. out-of-plane, sway vs. non-sway). 
Automated Buckling Design to Eurocode Standards in Consteel 
Demonstration of how to automate buckling design according to Eurocode 3, using advanced Consteel analysis results in combination with the standard design concepts for efficient and code-compliant structural verification.

WHO IS THIS TRAINING FOR?

This training is ideal for structural engineers eager to deepen their understanding of modern, efficient methods in steel buckling design. 
If you sometimes feel uncertain when selecting parameters or methods for buckling design, this course will help you gain clarity and confidence. 
Struggling with complex or unconventional buckling scenarios? Learn new practical approaches to handle a wide range of structural configurations. 
Already confident in your knowledge and tools? Challenge yourself – test your expertise and discover advanced techniques that can enhance your current practice. 


During the training

  • No Consteel license is needed for the training.
  • The training will be demonstrated in Consteel, but no prior experience or installation is required to follow along.
  • However if you would like to try the advanced analysis and design methods and tools discussed in the training you can do it with a 30-day Trial version for free.

CEO, Consteel Solutions Ltd. 

I have been working on the development of Consteel software for more than 20 years as CEO, responsible for strategic leadership, R&D, and marketing. As an active researcher in the field of steel structural design and member of structural standard maker’s committees (CEN-TC250-SC3-WG1 and ECCS TC8) I always seek modern and practice oriented ways of improving the design process. I think that introducing and selling innovation and new methods in the construction industry, especially in the deservedly very conservative structural engineering sector is a constant challenge and that is my entire career has been about.
