Static & Dynamic Structural Calculations

We use FEA simulation, Tekla TEDDS and traditional hand calculations to verify your structures.

Structural Calculations

We offer the following services;

  • Crane gantry designs

  • Lifting and spreader beam designs

  • Base design of masts, monopoles etc.

  • Verification of platforms and other structures

  • Strength check of fabricated structures including weld check analysis

Standards & Software

Standards include;

  • Eurocode 3 – EN1993 range of standards

  • Eurocode 1 – EN1991 : Actions on structures -Part 1-1: General actions -Densities, self-weight, imposed loads for buildings

  • EN13155 - Cranes. Safety. Non-fixed load lifting attachments

  • BS EN 4592 – Industrial type flooring and stair treads. Metal open bar grating

  • BS EN 1090-2 - Execution of steel structures and aluminium structures. Technical requirements for steel structures

Software includes;

  • Solidworks 3D Modelling – Production of 3D CAD parts and assemblies. 2D drawings as .pdf, .dwg or .dxf.

  • Solidworks Finite Element Analysis (static simulation) – 3D 2nd order simulation software.

  • Tekla TEDDS - A powerful software solution that automates repetitive structural calculations.

  • Traditional hand calculations.

Food Manufacture - Platform Calculations

Verification of personnel and equipment loads.

PME were commissioned to perform strength verification on a new steel platform to be installed at a food manufacturing company. Imposed and permanent actions were factored and applied to the platform.

Tour Deck Design to Eurocode 9

Innovative design and structural verification of an aluminium deck

Explore our recent project where we engineered an aluminium tour deck to Eurocode 9 standards, employing SOLIDWORKS FEA simulations and meticulous hand calculations for structural integrity.
