Lustrum of the ESA Prima-Win User Association (NL)


The ESA Prima-Win User Association in the Netherlands recently celebrated its first lustrum!

The preliminary meeting, attended by approximately 30 participants, took place on 24th November 1998 in an office of the Rotterdam Public Works Department. After the 2nd general meeting in the following February, the notary could execute the memorandum of association and the association became effective as of 11th March 1999.

During the 12th general meeting of last 4th March, the first lustrum was celebrated with a lustrum cake. From the very first moment, the association, which now has approximately 50 members, constantly has been on the up-and-up. The management and the members deployed miscellaneous activities in the past 5 years.

Apart from organizing workshops and trainings regarding specific

Reinforced Concrete in SCIA.ESA PT

 
 


Calculation of reinforcement

Reinforced Concrete Beams & Columns Analysis and Reinforced Concrete Plates & Walls Analysis are the SCIA.ESA PT modules for the calculation of reinforcement. The program is completely integrated with the SCIA.ESA PT modules of structural analysis.

With these modules the structural engineer has an interactive graphical tool at his disposal for the calculation of the statically required reinforcement amount according to the regulations given in <more>


    

The Market: the building industry in the Czech Republic

 


Since the entry of the Czech Republic into the EC in May 2004, the Czech building industry has shown an extraordinary flexibility to adapt to the market conditions; as a consequence, it nowadays is a sound business.

It has quickly anticipated on the stringent European requirements with regard to quality, speed and innovation.

EDIBO builds a "Cathedral of steel" for TCI Coek

 

Early May 2004, the Coek Group started the construction of the new production hall "TCI III" at Geel.

This investment enables the engineering company building its titanium-clad reactors even bigger than before.
In the production hall, a lifting capacity of 500 tons (rolling bridge of twice 250 tons) is provided! In this way, the Coek Group can build reactors with a diameter upwards of 10.5 meter and a unit weight of up to 500 tons.
As of now, columns up to

Tips&Tricks: the Property window in SCIA.ESA PT

 
 


When viewing the results of the calculation process, most of the time it is needed to select different members, for example, first you want to check the internal forces of the beams, then you want to check the internal forces of the columns. A possible way of doing this is by closing the Results menu, selecting the members needed and re-opening the Results menu. It is obvious that this way of working is quite time consuming.

An easier procedure is the following:

Open the Results menu by clicking on Results in the Main window:
