Steel Structure Column Base
Model to Download
Description
Stress analysis of a column base using a FEA model in RFEM. The bolts are modeled with nonlinear supports that only act under tension. The end plate of the column base has elastic foundations and only acts under compression.

Parameterized FE Model for Designing Rigid End Plate Joints
Designing rigid end plate connections is difficult for four-row connection geometries and multi-axis bending stresses, because there are no official design methods.
- How can I additionally model welds for the connection of two surfaces with a contact solid?
- I would like to use surface releases to model a bolt connection that can only absorb compressive stresses from the support. Unfortunately, I cannot do this because my model is always unstable. Is there a template model?
- Are the models and presentations from Info Day 2019 freely available, and can you send them to me?

How do I apply the ASCE 7 Orthogonal Directional Combination procedure (100% + 30% rule) to my seismic load in a static analysis?
- Is it possible in the CRANEWAY software to obtain the SLS rotational deformations of a continuous beam at the supports for an isostatic beam in the web plane?
