Join our Senior Application Engineer, Jean-Pierre Chanard, to learn the advantages of construction stage modeling and analysis using an example of a composite (concrete slab and steel girders) 3 spans bridge.

Construction Stage analysis allows engineers to optimize the structure at any point in its construction, and check that the designed structure will stand during erection time. Contrary to a conventional analysis method, this type of analysis considers changes in geometry, material, and loads during different phases of construction.

​In this webinar, you will learn about:

  • Creating a physical model of the bridge, a composite 3 span bridge
  • Generating an analytical model of the bridge
  • Introducing time in the activation phases of the analytical model
  • Studying different scenarios
  • Checking the robustness against the Canadian code
  • Producing deliverables from the 3D model (physical model) such as  drawings, geometry reports, quantity reports, and more
