Hi, I have some experience in sizing and detailed stress analysis. I am new to repair / structural modification justification work. I need to justify the frame web wherein new holes are added to install cabin lining (Plastic sheet). The weight is not significant. The number of fasteners per web...
Hi folks,
I am analysis a repair problem. Please refer attached picture. The initial plate (305mmx206mmx1.6mm) has supported some installations. To facilitate installations, the holes were blanked in the panel.
Now, the new design is void of those installations. Hence these holes need to be...
Hello fellow members,
I am working on the analysis of a section subjected to bending, shear and axial, torsion. The section is asymmetric about both the axes. I would like to know is there any method to calculate shear centre by hand calculations similar to the way we calculate moment of...

Hello Everybody,
I am doing hand calculation for the fasteners. Please find attached picture for reference for loading. The flexible beam is attached to relatively rigid structure. I believe the fastener fail due to bending not by axial tension alone. Hence to extract the fastener loads I have...
Hello RB1957,
Thank you fo the reply. I think I have not communicated properly. Pls ref the picture. It shows the fastener arrangement. I hope this will be clearly show you the arrangement. I appriciate your feed...
Hello All,
I would like ask help regarding how to find out the fastener load from Global FEM. I have two panels (PSHELL elements) representing two plates. In FEM, they are joined together and a CROD element is created at the common nodes. In reality there is splice plate connecting two. I have...
Hello Everybody,
I would like to have the clarification on the effect of pitch distance in stress analysis. I have fitting which needs get connected through fasteners of 4.80 mm dia. The normal pitch kept is 4.5d-5.0d. In this case, due to space constraint, the pitch is 3.5d. The fasteners are...
