To mark the 100th anniversary of The Structural Engineer , Alan Rathbone looks back at several key papers that helped advance the development of plastic design of steel portal frames.
This CPD module, sponsored by Oasys, explains what we mean by accuracy and precision, looks at possible causes of inaccuracy when conducting a finite-element analysis and discusses the role of validation and verification in checking the accuracy of modelling output.
This CPD module, sponsored by SCIA, explores the productivity benefits that structural engineers could gain by adopting a parametric approach to design.
