fib WP 2.2.4 (Strut-and-tie modelling) Webinar Workshop

Sold out. New dates will be announced soon.

The fib WP 2.2.4 “Strut and tie modelling” is holding an online workshop on “Design and assessment with strut-and-tie models and stress fields: From simple calculations to detailed numerical analysis”. The workshop will take place on 1 April 2022 and 4 April 2022. 

Aims and scope of the Webinar

Strut-and-tie and stress fields are instrumental tools for structural designers. They allow for an intuitive understanding of the structural response and allow the engineer to adopt suitable design decisions. A complete review of the method, from its theoretical bases and classical implementations to state-of-the-art approaches, has been recently published in Bulletin 100 of fib, drafted by its WP 2.2.4.

This Webinar, organized by WP 2.2.4, is aimed at being an opportunity to share knowledge on strut-and-tie and stress fields with professionals, academics and students. The webinar is organized in two afternoons. The first is devoted to reviewing classical and advanced concepts of the methods, with sufficient time for discussions and questions. The second will consist on interactive sessions where academic and real practical cases are solved by experts of the WP 2.2.4 together with the audience. This latter task will be performed with hand-based approaches and also using a specific software for stress field design (the software will be free to download and use for all attendees).
