Thank you for the webinar "Design Cold-Formed Steel Sections According to Eurocode 3." I really liked it. The webinar recordings are a real plus point. Keep it up!
Very Good Webinar
In the Steel Joints add-on, you can perform precise cuts on plates and structural components using the "Auxiliary Solid" component. Within this component, you can use the shapes of a box, a cylinder, or any cross-section as a guide object.
Go to Explanatory VideoThe Steel Joints add-on provides you with the option to connect circular hollow sections using welds.
It is possible to connect the circular sections to each other or to planar structural components. The fillets of standard and thin-walled sections can also be connected with a weld.
In the Steel Joints add-on, you can classify the joint stiffness.
In addition to the initial stiffness, the table also shows the limit values for hinged and rigid connections for the selected internal forces N, My, and/or Mz. The resulting classification is then displayed in tables as "hinged", "semi-rigid", or "rigid".
Go to Explanatory VideoIn the Steel Joints add-on, you have this option to consider the preloaded bolts in the calculation of all components.
You can easily activate the prestress using the check box in the bolt parameters, and it has an impact on the stress-strain analysis as well as the stiffness analysis.
