Graduation Thesis | Structural Analysis and Design of Aircraft Hangar with Arched Supporting Structure

🏗️ Spotlight on a New Graduation Thesis! ✈️

Check out this impressive thesis on Structural Analysis and Design of an Aircraft Hangar with an Arched Supporting Structure. The work outlines the key steps involved in designing and selecting the structural components for an aircraft hangar. While some dimensions are predefined, others are carefully determined throughout the design process using our software.

This thesis is a great example of how our tools empower engineering students to tackle complex structural challenges.

In this article, you will learn how to model and design cable structures in RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9.

KB 001879 | Influence of Bending Stiffness of Cables

This article describes and explains the influence of bending stiffness of cables on their internal forces. Furthermore, the text provides information on how this influence can be reduced.

To evaluate whether it is also necessary to consider the second-order analysis in a dynamic calculation, the sensitivity coefficient of interstory drift θ is provided in EN 1998‑1, Sections 2.2.2 and 4.4.2.2. It can be calculated and analyzed using RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9.

Reduction of Building to Cantilever Structure The individual mass points represent stories. The deflection due to the normal compression forces shown in (a) is (b) converted into equivalent moments of displacement or shear forces (KB1867)

For the ultimate limit state design, EN 1998‑1, Sections 2.2.2 and 4.4.2.2 require a calculation considering the second‑order theory (P‑Δ effect). This effect may be neglected only if the interstory drift sensitivity coefficient θ is less than 0.1.

Product Features

The design results of the add-ons can be optionally displayed in the tables by design situations. This allows you to evaluate the results in great detail.

In the combination wizard, you can create final result combinations using auxiliary combinations. In the case of models with many load cases (for example, moving loads for bridges), you can use this option to generate result combinations that are more transparent and thus easier to check.
