Static strength verifications
Binding evaluations of your components
A static strength verification is a procedure used in engineering, particularly in mechanical engineering and civil engineering, to check the load-bearing capacity and safety of a structure or component under static load.
Static loads are forces or moments that act on a component constantly or only slowly changing, in contrast to dynamic or alternating loads.
The static strength calculation ensures that a component can withstand the forces acting on it without unacceptable plastic deformation or breakage occurring. This is ensured by calculations that determine the maximum stresses and deformations in the component and compare them with the permissible limit values. A common limit value is the yield strength (for steel) and a safety factor of 1.5.
The static strength verification is fundamental for ensuring the safety of structures and machines and is used in all areas of engineering.

and other relevant regulations.
Advantages of the strength analysis of components
Prevention of component failure
A static strength verification can be used to ensure that the component can withstand the loads acting on it. This protects people and property.
Dimensioning of components
We determine the required dimensions and material properties to ensure a safe and resilient component.
Optimization of constructions
The results can be used to optimize the design. This reduces costs and can improve the availability of semi-finished products.
