Conveyor Bridge for Conveyor Belt System, Uzbekistan
Customer Project
The conveyor bridge is a part of the conveyor belt system realized in Uzbekistan.

Ingenieurbüro Jürgen Ehlenz, Beckingen, Germany www.ibehlenz.de |
Engineering office Jürgen Ehlenz, a long-term customer of Dlubal Software, was responsible for the structural analysis and detailed design of the conveyor bridge and other parts of the conveyor belt system.
Structure
The bridge is used to shift a conveyor belt.
On both sides, there is a catwalk. For lack of space, the bridge was designed as a truss structure, the cantilevered part as a plate structure.
Some of the cross‑sections were modeled in SHAPE‑THIN.

Manual adjustment of the buckling curve according to EN 1993-1-1
The RF-/STEEL EC3 add-on module automatically transfers the buckling line to be used for the flexural buckling analysis for a cross-section from the cross-section properties. In particular for general cross -sections, but also for special cases, the assignment of the buckling line can be adjusted manually in the module input.

SHAPE-THIN | Cold-Formed Sections
SHAPE-THIN determines the effective cross-sections according to EN 1993-1-3 and EN 1993-1-5 for cold-formed sections. You can optionally check the geometric conditions for the applicability of the standard specified in EN 1993‑1‑3, Section 5.2.
The effects of local plate buckling are considered according to the method of reduced widths and the possible buckling of stiffeners (instability) is considered for stiffened sections according to EN 1993-1-3, Section 5.5.
As an option, you can perform an iterative calculation to optimize the effective cross-section.
You can display the effective cross-sections graphically.
