STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF MODIFIED "A" FRAME (2013)

  • Re-design of the “A” Frame structural analysis which will be used by Fugro Geos as a lifting frame during marine operations.
  • The “A” Frame has been modelled on structural software using stick element method. The model is a space frame structure element and connecting in each other by node.
  • Two load cases have been considered in this analysis that is static case and dynamic case according to the actual load that will occur during marine operations.
  • All stress output results were checked against AISC criteria according to AISC criteria.
