Ongoing Registration In Progress Closed
From Plates to Shells:
FEM Interpretation and Design According to Eurocode
    🕑 15:00 - 16:00 (SGT)
Online (GotoWebinar)
✏️Session Overview

Are you still relying only on conventional plate modelling in FEM for your slab and shell structures? While it works for simple cases, it often overlooks key in-plane forces and membrane actions that can make or break the safety of complex structures.

This webinar will show you how to move beyond limitations and unlock the full potential of shell design. Using Midas Gen, we will demonstrate how to correctly interpret FEM outputs and apply Eurocode-based reinforcement design that captures both in-plane and out-of-plane behavior.

 

With practical project case studies and real-world applications, you will see firsthand how shell design not only improves structural reliability but also leads to more efficient and economical designs.

 

👉 Join us to discover when to switch from plate to shell design, how to read shell forces with confidence, and how to take your slab and shell design practice to the next level. Don’t miss this opportunity to strengthen your engineering skills and gain practical know-how you can apply immediately.
