maximum permissible loading

[Anonymous]

Hello

Does robot structural analysis solve for maximum permissible loading.

for example if i have an HEA 200 beam of length 6 m can robot solve for the maximum point load it can support at the middle

You can run verification of such beam according to the selected design code and increase the force till the safety ratio is 1.0.

Thank you



That is what I was doing , I thought there is an easier way



Another issue concerning lateral buckling



If I make analysis of simply supported beam with point load at the middle it
passes with lateral buckling unchecked but fails when checked



For such beams we should consider lateral buckling??

It depends on beam cross section and if the beam is restricted laterally ( by a slab, for example)or not
