Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Select steel properties: pick modulus E, yield strength, and note sources efficiently.
- Analyse beams: sketch shear and moment diagrams, identify maximum bending stress.
- Calculate deflections: use cantilever equations, check units and service limits.
- Assess safety: contrast stresses with yield values, use safety factors, evaluate risks.
- Suggest fixes: adjust shape, material, or add stiffeners to reduce deflection.
