1 Structural Design Code Verifier Version 3.0

2 What is SDC Verifier? The goal of SDC Verifier is checking structures according to standards and report generation. 2

3 SDC Verifier Embedded into Femap 3

4 Load combinations: Advanced calculation structure according to standard logic: Individual Load = single load result Load Set = combination of loads Load Group = envelope of set of results 4

5 Tools Panel Finder; Beam Member Finder; Complicated Load: Wind and Hydroload; Rule Based Selector; 5

6 Panel finder Model recognition Frames Longitudinals Example Frame 36 Decks 6

7 Plate finder in section Plate Buckling Results Recognize plates and determine dimensions Use dimensions for buckling check Table with results 7

8 Beam member finder Model recognition Beam member tool Determines (buckling) length for both element directions Apply member checks (based on length) Beams are connected with joints 3d joints limit length in both directions 2d joints limit length in 1 direction 1d joints for recognition i.e. weld classification Beam-plate joints (for stiffeners) User defined 8

9 Beam member finder Joint finder Automatically recognize type of joints; Recognize 2D Y and 2D Z joints; Colored plots; Easy to edit. 9

10 Beam member finder Member lengths and buckling check Buckling check Beam members Length of beam members 10

11 Tools. Complicated loads Wind Hydroload Water level calculation Accelerations on tank content included Pressure (depend on height) Hull pressure 11

12 Rule based Selector Rule Types: - Materials; - Properties; - Groups; - Coordinate; - Element Types; - Element Shapes; Operations: - Add; - Remove; - Exclude; - Reselect. Always Up to date Coordinate Rule Element Types Rule 12

13 Checks Fatigue check according to different methods and standards Plate Buckling according to ABS and DNV standards; Custom Checks; Moment Shear Force Check; 13

14 Example: Fatigue Check with mean stress correction Used by standards as DIN 15018, FEM 1.001, DASt-011, BS7608, AISC LRFD, etc Fatigue Allowable Stress Design (Goodman relation) Allowable Stress depends on classification For single stresses Combined Element Group 6 more than 2 millions cycles K4 welds example Maximum Fatigue Damage 14

15 Fatigue Example Notch group Pylon Utilization Factor (Smax/Sallow) Allowable Stress vs Kappa Weld class K3 Weld class K0 15

16 Plate Buckling Check (ABS, DNV) No FEM buckling but stress based (for full ship buckling modes) Calculation methods: Complete Structure Estimate user define standard panel dimension for selection. Element orientation must be x=length y=width; Single Panel each panel is defined. Dimensions are calculated (check by user). Stresses are translated into panel direction. 16

17 Plate Buckling Example Maximum plate dimensions 700x2450 Maximum plate dimensions 700x1200 Plots and model IHC Dredgers B.V. OK with plate dimensions 700x

18 SDC Verifier is customizable If check is missing use custom check 18

19 Simple example 1: Static Stress Check Equivalent Stress Sallow = Max (Yield, 0.7 * Tensile) Utilization Factor = Stress / Sallow Utilization Factor 19

20 Example 2: AISC Buckling Check 20

21 Moment and Shear Force Check At section Shear Force Moment 21

22 Completely custom report Standard reports Report Wizard; Quick selection method for report generation Report Designer. Completely customizable method for fine tuning report including extra text, summary etc. 22

23 Completely custom report Report Wizard; Report Designer. Report Wizard easy step by step report Report Designer previewer. Advanced report 23

24 Report Generation in Wizard First Page Tables Model Setup Plots Job Settings Checks Generated Report 24

25 Model Setup Report Fem Load and Constraint Description General information Property Table 25

26 Report Results Result Plots Checks Result Tables 26

27 Tables Displacement on nodes. Absolute maximum highlighted Worst Stresses among loads Extreme values over selections (properties) Sum of applied forces on loads Extreme Stresses over directions Extreme Location 27

28 Plots Same plot different Views Same plot different Components 28

29 Report Generation in Designer Print and Preview without Word Export To Word Toolbox with all project items Regenerate part of report Edit properties with context menu easily Move items (Drag and Drop) Edit Item Properties Extra Items 29

30 Re-use of calculation process Set in SDC Verifier file: full calculation settings Apply all loads, load combinations and load groups All checks (according to your standard) Necessary calculation documents Re-use.sdcv file as template with all above settings 30

31 Open as template First model (template) New Model Two models. Same report 31

32 Quick Support Quick Support allows to get access to your PC by SDC Verifier specialist. Send your ID to us: Skype: sdcverifier_helpdesk; Phone: ; Quick Support does not require Installation of Team Viewer 32
