Structural Analysis and Design of Hangar Using RFEM Software

The objective of this project is to develop a detailed analysis and structural design of a hangar using the principles of Eurocode EN 1993. The purpose of this analysis is to ensure the structural stability and safety of the structure under various loads and conditions. This will be achieved by optimizing the use of materials and ensuring compliance with current regulations.

Specific objectives:

1. Identification of loads: Determination of the permanent (G) and variable (Q) loads affecting the hangar, including usage loads, wind, and snow, in accordance with the Eurocode.

2. Stability analysis: Calculation of the critical load factor (critical alpha, αcr) for the hangar structure, evaluating the stability against buckling under different load combinations.

3. Modeling and simulation: Creating a detailed model of the hangar using structural analysis software (RFEM), a powerful finite element analysis program that allows for second-order analysis, developed by Dlubal Software, simulating the response of the structure under different loads and conditions.

4. Design optimization: Proposal of an optimized design of the structural elements of the hangar, considering resistance, rigidity and stability, minimizing the use of materials and costs, without compromising safety.

5. Regulatory verification: Verification that the design meets all requirements and limitations imposed by the Eurocode, including the strength and serviceability design checks.

6. Documentation and presentation: Documentation of all calculations, analyses, and design checks performed. Presentation of the results in a clear and understandable manner, including drawing and construction details.
