    Impact force of sliding window

    Hi! Hope you all are doing great :) I'm in need of some tips/help regarding some forces for the design of a structure. I have a sliding window that will impact on a steel square profile (represented in blue). The glazing sliding window will have a total mass around 150 kg, a impact height of...

    Bold Design for simply supported bens in bending

    Hi everyone! Hope you are all doing great. Recently, I have to design some bolt connection between two steel profiles for a simply supported beam, and I'm having some troubles on how to get the shear for the bolts conecting the steel profiles. The bolts are intended to be bolted with a 500...

    Fastening design for bending moment of bolted profiles

    Hi! I'm in need of some assistance, and hopefully someone here can help me :) I have an aluminum U chanel that where a cladding will be fixed. This cladding will transmit forces according to the scheme below. This forces will tranlate on a bending moment according to the yy axis on the...

    Multiple parts Reinforcement profile analysis

    Hello! I'm having some issues analyzing the structural integrity of sliding window when subjected to wind pressure perpendicular to the glass panes. I have two glass panels supported by some aluminium frameworks profiles with a steel reinforcement bar ( see image bellow). I can take the area...
