How can strength calculations help to optimise structures?

The role of strength calculations in the optimisation of structures

Strength calculations are a key part of the structural optimisation process, ensuring that structures are both safe and cost-effective. This process enables the assessment of the load, deformation and stresses in structures to make informed decisions on materials and structural design. Hefmec has long experience in strength calculations, which enables us to provide our customers with solutions that are both technically and economically optimal.

Structural analysis and structural engineering

In structural engineering, strength calculations are an essential tool to help engineers design and build structures that can withstand different loads and environmental conditions. This technique allows structures to be examined at a detailed level, helping to identify potential weaknesses and make the necessary changes at the design stage. Hefmec uses advanced calculation methods, such as Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis, to ensure that structures meet all safety and durability requirements from the outset.

Design and optimisation of structures

Optimal structural design requires careful strength calculations to strike a balance between weight, cost and performance. Hefmec’s agile working methods and open culture enable fast and accurate analysis, allowing us to provide our customers with quick solutions. When others talk about months, we talk about days. Through robustness calculations, we can design structures that not only meet today’s needs, but also improve productivity in the future.

The role of the engineer in optimising structures

Engineers play a key role in strength calculations and optimisation of structures. They are responsible for ensuring that a structure is designed correctly and can withstand the loads placed on it. Hefmec engineers are at the forefront of their field, using the latest technologies and methods to ensure that all projects meet the most stringent standards. Our strong expertise also covers non-linear analysis, which is particularly important when analysing complex loads and structures.
