A safe structural element attachment is vital in the construction industry because it requires to hold each building element together to constitute a whole assembly with a high safety factor and providing good shelter. It is always important to design an effective and strategically connection with the right fastener, position, material compatibility and load capacity that can effectively distribute the load from element to element through the load path from the top of the building to the bottom of the foundation. The demand of loading due to vertical and lateral forces can sometimes and unexpectedly exceed the capacity of a connection that leads to catastropic failure. At Calcudraft Engineering, we simplify a complex configuration by separating these into individual elements and thus analyzing these to better understand the load mechanism involved. The study will help us understand the critical load path and re-integrate the individual parts altogether as whole once again with now a proper design. The now completed design system, will show the integrated parts that properly distribute the load along the critical load path. Click on the following icon for the required calculation.
