advanced Design of steel industrial halls in 2d

This training focuses on advanced analysis and design methodologies for the 2D structural design of single-storey steel industrial buildings. The training is organized around the use of Consteel, but the principles can be applied to other structural design software as well.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

Use of 7DOF beam finite element

Design 2D mainframes (portal and truss) for single-storey steel halls using hot-rolled, welded, or cold-formed members

Elastic and plastic-hinge analysis options

Strength and stability verifications to Eurocode 3, with references to AISC 360 and MBMA/AISC Design Guide 25

Global buckling analysis including all possible failure modes (flexural buckling, torsional buckling, constrained axis buckling, lateral-torsional buckling, etc.)

Understand buckling sensitivity of structural members

Consider lateral stabilization options provided by purlins or roof sheeting

Effect of roof in-plane stiffness on the stabilization

Understand the General Method and review applicable imperfections

Use Equivalent Imperfections and proceed with a design based on Geometrically Non-Linear Analysis (GNIA)

See how connection stiffness affects global structural behavior

Terms of Participation

WHO IS THIS TRAINING FOR?

This training is ideal for structural engineers seeking to specialize in the design of industrial halls, especially those focused on achieving optimal results by precisely evaluating the impact and interaction of every primary and secondary structural component.

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.
