design verification

At the design stage, we can help you to achieve a safe and reliable design through design verification calculations.
These may take the form of hand calculations, using standard methods but based upon our experience of structural design.
For more complex geometries/ loading, we build a finite element model using the ANSYS program.

The types of analysis we undertake are:

  • Static Loading - pressure, mechanical, body forces.
  • Dynamic Loading - Modal analysis & forced response.
  • Flow Induced Vibration.
  • Seismic Qualification.
  • Environmental Loading (Wind, tide, wave and snow).
  • Thermal Analysis (Steady state and transient).
  • Thermally Induced Stresses.
  • Fatigue Assessment
