How are you currently doing clash detection on 3D Rebar detailing and what steps, if any, have been introduced for a more efficient workflow? 🤔

When designing an SSG (structural silicone glazing) joint, which of the following arrows are we accounting for – blue or red? Typically, in a vertical unitized glazing assembly, the predominant glass loading scheme is designed as follows: ▪️Dead load (gravity / weight) - red arrow - carried down through the glass setting chair, back through the mullion and into the structure. ▪️Lateral load (positive / negative wind pressures) - blue arrow - glass is retained back to the frame via the SSG joint. So, when designing our structural silicone joint, it’s critical to account for extreme lateral loading conditions and build in an adequate factor of safety.

Sawtooth staircases are waist-less designs with a modern zigzag pattern that combines visual appeal with structural complexity. Unlike traditional staircases, their unique geometry requires careful analysis to account for non-linear load paths, bending moments, and shear forces. This article explores analytical methods, including strain energy principles and advanced techniques like FEA, to address these challenges. It highlights Reynolds and Steedman’s practical approach and includes a detailed worked example using Eurocode 2, covering load analysis, moment calculation, and reinforcement design. 👉 [https://lnkd.in/dm8PMRKF] #SawtoothStaircases #StructuralDesign #StaircaseEngineering #ReinforcedConcrete #InnovativeStructures

Steel Joint Design on "Result Beam" Member Type and on Surface Models https://bit.ly/3CnQJOd In the Steel Joints add-on, you can use not only the usual member types of "Beam", "Truss", and so on, but also the member type of "Result Beam", as well as cross-sections from surface elements. You should select a suitable cross-section for the result beam and then define any member openings in the surface model using the member editor. #rfem6 #steelconnection #joints

⭐ Extracting Blade Camber line for Accurate Geometric Property Determination⭐ ✍ Accurately extracting the geometric characteristics of blades plays a vital role in both the regeneration of base airfoils and the optimization process. One effective approach is by deriving the camber line and corresponding thickness distribution of the blade sections. 🔑 Key geometric properties that can be obtained using this method: 🔹 Inlet, outlet, and stagger angles of the blade section 🔹 Chord length, and the precise locations of the leading and trailing edges 🔹 Maximum thickness location and its value By developing a precise method that respects the original camber line definition, it's now possible to extract camber and thickness profiles with high accuracy. 👉 Check out the video below to see the process of drawing the camber line of an airfoil!  ❓ What challenges do you think this method could face? Let's discuss in the comments! #MechanicalEngineering #Camber #Thickness #Camberline #CompressorBlades #Optimization #Blade #Airfoil #EngineeringDesign #BladeDesign
