Linear buckling analysis and its use in steel structure design

This training introduces linear buckling analysis as a key and efficient tool for the buckling design of steel structural members. Although not always explicitly included in standardized design methods, the approach is based on robust and well-established linear eigenvalue analysis commonly used in dynamic calculations. Participants will gain practical understanding of elastic critical load factors, buckling mode shapes, and their role in steel design. The training also highlights how these concepts are effectively applied using Consteel’s advanced analysis capabilities.

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.

Get to Know Your Trainer

Dr. József Szalai 

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.
